Primates is a bimonthly peer-reviewed scientific journal of primatology, and an official journal of the Japan Monkey Center at Kyoto University.[1]: 584 It publishes original papers that cover all aspects of the study of primates. It was the first scientific journal focused exclusively on primates and remains the oldest, longest-running international primatology journal in the world.[2]

The journal publishes original research articles, reviews, news and perspectives, and book reviews. It was established in 1957 by Kinji Imanishi.[3] Although the first volume contained both articles in Japanese[4][5][6][7] or English,[8][9] subsequent volumes were published in English, thanks to a grant from the Rockefeller Foundation.[1]: 593 It is now published by Springer and the current editor-in-chief is Masayuki Nakamichi (Osaka University).
