The acidity of the gastric contents of fasted members of seven families of primates was measured, and no relationship was found between acid concentration and phylogenetic development; in general, however, gastric acidity was higher in New World monkeys than in Old World monkeys. The administration of histamine increased gastric acidity.Entities:
