We performed cross-species comparison to determine how the human default mode network (DMN) connectivity pattern compares to non-hominid primates. We characterized and compared the resting-state network functional organisation in humans, macaques, marmosets, and mouse lemurs using functional and anatomical atlases. We found decreased engagement of mPFC (medial prefrontal cortex) in all non-hominid primates “DMN-like” compared to humans. Another network involving mPFC was identified in all non-hominid primates but not in humans. Altogether, our results show that high order networks often assumed to be shared across primates diverge considerably between non-hominid species and humans.
