Phylogenetic hypotheses for the Old World monkey tribe Papionini based on molecular data are incongruent with those inferred from previous morphological analyses. Morphologists have often inferred a close relationship between Mandrillus and Papio based on their overall similarity. Theropithecus has been variously proposed to be either quite distantly related to these two genera, their sister taxon, or anywhere in between. Molecular and chromosomal analyses on the other hand unambiguously group Theropithecus and Papio together to the exclusion of Mandrillus. Additionally, molecular and chromosomal analyses reveal that mangabeys (Cerocebus) are paraphyletic. Morphologists have acknowledged this possibility resurrecting the genus name Lophocebus for one group of mangabeys. A review and reanalysis of the morphological characters put forth by various researchers find little to contradict the consensus phylogeny derived from analysis of chromosomal banding, nuclear RNA restriction mapping, alpha and beta hemoglobin sequences, albumin and transferrin microcomplement fixation, DNA-DNA hybridization, repetitive DNA patterns, immunodiffusion, hemoglobin and adenylate kinase isozymes, and mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit II DNA sequences.
基于分子数据得出的旧世界猴狒狒族的系统发育假说与先前形态学分析推断的结果不一致。形态学家常常基于曼氏狒狒（Mandrillus）和狒狒属（Papio）的总体相似性推断它们之间存在密切关系。关于疣猴属（Theropithecus）与这两个属的关系，有各种不同的提议，认为它要么与这两个属关系相当疏远，要么是它们的姐妹分类单元，或者介于两者之间的任何情况。另一方面，分子和染色体分析明确地将疣猴属和狒狒属归为一类，而将曼氏狒狒排除在外。此外，分子和染色体分析表明白眉猴属（Cerocebus）是并系群。形态学家已经认识到这种可能性，为一组白眉猴重新启用了洛氏猴属（Lophocebus）这个属名。对不同研究人员提出的形态学特征进行回顾和重新分析后发现，几乎没有什么与通过染色体带型分析、核RNA限制图谱分析、α和β血红蛋白序列分析、白蛋白和转铁蛋白微量补体结合分析、DNA - DNA杂交分析、重复DNA模式分析、免疫扩散分析、血红蛋白和腺苷酸激酶同工酶分析以及线粒体细胞色素氧化酶亚基II DNA序列分析得出的系统发育共识相矛盾。
