I thought monkeys and humans were both classified as Homonids, in which case, wouldn't it fit with Oktigis and Glukkons?

Humans are in the family Hominidae (hominids), monkeys are a paraphyletic group split between numerous families, including Cercopithecidae (cercopithecids), Atelidae (atelids) and Callitrichidae (callitrichids). Along with the great apes and lesser apes. They're all contained within groups of higher rank, but they're different families, and not all hominids.

I'm noy sure I understand. Oktigi is the family. Were you comparing Oktogi and Glukkons like monkeys and humans? Or has my brain fianally melted?

We were comparing the evolutionary difference between Oktigi and Glukkons to the evolutionary difference between humans and monkeys and finding the analogy lacking.
