Dian's tarsier

Dian's tarsier, also known as the Diana tarsier, is a nocturnal primate endemic to the rainforests of Central Sulawesi in Indonesia. The older name Tarsius dianae, coined in 1991 for the Roman goddess Diana and the late Dian Fossey, is now treated as a junior synonym of Tarsius dentatus. Adults measure roughly 11.5 to 12 centimetres in head and body length, with a tail near 22 centimetres, and weigh 100 to 150 grams. The fur is a woolly greyish buff, with a black spot on each side of the nose. Like other tarsiers it clings to vertical trunks and leaps, and it lives on a strict diet of live animals, chiefly crickets, grasshoppers and moths. Groups of two to seven share a sleeping site, often in a strangler fig, and pairs sing duets before dawn. The species is in decline as logging and plantations alter its forest.
