The photo image shows weights of 100g for the monkey, 400g each for the orangutan and chimpanzee, and 1350 for the human. I believe these refer to the brain mass rather than that of the skulls (which seems to be implied). Whatever, it is not specified which or what, and I think it would be better for the caption to mention these weights.

Thank you for your astute observation and feedback. Yes, the labels on the image refer to brain mass. We have revised the article accordingly.
