All prosimian s have a grooming claw, but the digit that is specialized in this manner varies. ref name evolution cite doi 10.1006 jhev.1998.0263 ref Tarsier s have a grooming claw on second and third toe s. With one possible exception, in the suborder Strepsirrhini , which includes lemur s, galago s and Lorisidae lorises , the grooming claw is on the second toe. The possible exception is the aye aye , which has claws instead of nails on toes 2 through 5. There is some debate concerning whether any of these claws and if so which ones are grooming claws. Fact date September 2008 Less commonly known, a grooming claw is also found on the second pedal digit of owl monkey s Aotus , titi s Callicebus , and possibly other New World monkey s. ref name Maiolino cite doi 10.1002 ar.21498 ref The first toe is the large one, the equivalent of a human Hallux big toe . However, in all these prosimians the foot is more or less hand like. The first toe is opposable, like a human thumb , and the second and third toes correspond approximately to the index and middle fingers. Like a claw or a nail, the grooming claw is also made of keratin . It resembles a claw in both its lateral compression and longitudinal curvature. However, the tip is not as pointed, and it always stands at a steeper angle, a characteristic that also distinguishes it from a nail. ref name evolution Function The grooming claw is used in personal grooming to rake through the fur or scratch, particularly around the head and neck. ref name Maiolino References reflist commonscat Toilet claws Category Primate anatomy Category Nails anatomy primate stub de Putzkralle et Tualettk nis fr Griffe de toilette ...   more details
