Ejaculated baboon sperm was observed by scanning electron microscopy. The plasma membrane was generally smooth except on the acrosome where it was probably slightly wrinkled. The head was short, oval, paddle-shaped and tapering at its anterior end. The anterior segment of the acrosome was surrounded by a marginal thickening; the postacrosomal region was limited anteriorly by the equatorial segment and caudally by the posterior ring. Subsurface structures were visible in the tail, such as the relatively long and regular helix of mitochondria in the middle piece and the columns and ribs of the sheath in the principal piece. The morphology and dimensions of the baboon sperm was compared with that of other Primates and found very close to that of other Cercopithecidae.
通过扫描电子显微镜观察射出的狒狒精子。除了顶体部位的质膜可能稍有褶皱外，质膜总体上是光滑的。头部短，呈椭圆形，桨状，前端逐渐变细。顶体的前段被边缘增厚部分包围；顶体后区域在前方由赤道段界定，在后方由后环界定。尾部可见亚表面结构，如中段相对长且规则的线粒体螺旋以及主段鞘的柱状物和肋状物。将狒狒精子的形态和尺寸与其他灵长类动物的进行比较，发现与其他猕猴科动物的非常接近。
