AB  - The rhesus monkey has played an important role in the history of reproductive 
      research. Because of limitations on the exportation and availability of this 
      species, several other species of nonhuman primates have been considered as 
      alternate models. Among them is the crab-eating, or cynomolgus, macaque (Macaca 
      fascicularis), which displays similarities in developmental, reproductive, and 
      physiological parameters. The use of both species of macaques for 
      pregnancy-related studies necessitates the assessment of differences in growth 
      and development through gestation. Observations during the embryonic and fetal 
      periods in both species have been compared with diagnostic ultrasound. Results 
      indicate no significant differences in size during the embryonic and early fetal 
      periods, but a greater acceleration of growth in the rhesus begins at 
      approximately 100-110 gestational days (GD). Analysis of embryonic and fetal 
      heart rates indicate no differences between the two species. Normal predictive 
      values for a variety of growth parameters including gestational sac, greatest 
      length, biparietal diameter, and femur length have boon calculated by multiple 
      regression analysis. These charts have proven useful for confirming the 
      gestational age after timed matings and for predicting the age of animals for 
      which the conception date is not known.
