Not a prefix. — Mnemosientje (t · c) 09:41, 29 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Is it a morpheme? We also have "prefixes", , , , , , ..., , . I see no reason to single this one out for special treatment. --Lambiam 16:52, 29 September 2020 (UTC)
 * The two sole derived terms seem to me to just be either straight up the Greek word pithekos (with latinized  from Greek ) + -oid and -ology, respectively. To me, it doesn't really seem like a prefix in the narrow sense. — Mnemosientje (t · c) 18:08, 29 September 2020 (UTC)
 * More has been Latinized, like ⟨th⟩ replacing Greek ⟨θ⟩. I agree it isn’t a prefix, but the same story holds for the (non-exhaustive) list I gave above. All are Latinized stems of Greek words, with or without a euphonic infix -o-. --Lambiam 18:59, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
 * I would delete those too. PUC – 20:58, 16 October 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete. The two words aren't using pithec- as a prefix, and there are only two of them.  Vox Sciurorum (talk) 18:46, 4 October 2020 (UTC)
