靈長形上目

靈長形上目（學名：Primatomorpha）為哺乳綱下的一個演化支，包含了皮翼目及靈長目，兩者約於7,960萬年前分家^[5][2]。靈長形上目與樹鼩目為姊妹群，兩者共同組成真靈長大目。

靈長形上目一詞最早出現於1991年（K.C. Beard）及1992年（Kalandadze, Rautian）的科學文獻之中。核DNA序列的研究分析（Murphy et al., 2001）支持真靈長大目假說，但針對粒線體DNA的研究分析（Arnason et al., 2002）則支持不一樣的假說。透過反轉錄轉座子標記（英語：Retrotransposon marker）的研究（Kriegs et al., 2007）也同樣支持真靈長大目假說。

另外，有假說將皮翼目與樹鼩目合併為巽他獸類（英語：Sundatheria），與靈長目互為姊妹群^[6][7]。近年來，也有部分研究假說將巽他獸類做為齧形大目的姊妹群，並主張廢除真靈長大目^[8][9]。
