The gestural and tactile forms of communication using arms among the young and adult specimen of lower monkeys of subfamily Cercopithecoidea and higher monkeys of subfamily Hominioidea have been investigated. It has been concluded that gestures are the new form of phylogenesis in comparison with the contact patterns, their development is generally connected with the aggressive behaviour. The growing differentiation of gestures connected with the transition from participation of the whole arm to the leading role of the hand and finger gestures has been determined. The frequency of gestures is closely connected with the species structural organization and ecology.
对猕猴亚科低等猴类和人猿亚科高等猴类的幼年和成年个体中使用手臂进行的手势和触觉交流形式进行了研究。得出的结论是，与接触模式相比，手势是系统发育的新形式，其发展通常与攻击行为有关。已确定与从整个手臂参与到以手部和手指手势为主导的转变相关的手势日益分化。手势的频率与物种的结构组织和生态密切相关。
