灵长形上目

灵长形上目（学名：Primatomorpha）为哺乳纲下的一个演化支，包含了皮翼目及灵长目，两者约于7,960万年前分家^[5][2]。灵长形上目与树鼩目为姊妹群，两者共同组成真灵长大目。

灵长形上目一词最早出现于1991年（K.C. Beard）及1992年（Kalandadze, Rautian）的科学文献之中。核DNA序列的研究分析（Murphy et al., 2001）支持真灵长大目假说，但针对线粒体DNA的研究分析（Arnason et al., 2002）则支持不一样的假说。透过反转录转座子标记（英语：Retrotransposon marker）的研究（Kriegs et al., 2007）也同样支持真灵长大目假说。

另外，有假说将皮翼目与树鼩目合并为巽他兽类（英语：Sundatheria），与灵长目互为姊妹群^[6][7]。近年来，也有部分研究假说将巽他兽类做为啮形大目的姊妹群，并主张废除真灵长大目^[8][9]。
