Macaca fuscata  displays characteristic behaviours, such as stone handling, locomotor behaviour, gait position, and intermittent bipedalism. Differences in characteristic behaviours among primate species/genera could be explained by anatomical details of the body. However, the anatomical details have not been well studied in  Macaca fuscata . Arterial models could be one of the anatomical bases for the phylogenetic and functional differences among species, since the arterial supply could be associated with the muscular performance, especially locomotor behaviour. In this study, five thoracic limbs of  Macaca fuscata  adults were dissected to analyse the vessels. Patterns of arterial distribution in the thoracic limbs of  Macaca fuscata  were compared with those in other primates. The results indicated that the arterial distribution in the Japanese monkeys was more similar to those in  Macaca mulatta  and  Papio anubis , which is consistent with phylogenetic similarities. However, compared with  Papio anubis  and other macaques, there were anatomical differences in several points, including (1) the origin of the common, anterior, posterior circumflex, and profunda brachii, and (2) the origins of the collateralis ulnaris artery. The comparative anatomy of the arteries in the forelimb of  Macaca fuscata , along with the anatomical studies in other primates, indicated characteristic patterns of brachial artery division and the number of the palmar arches in primates, which is consistent with the phylogenetic division among New World primates, Old World primates, and apes.
