Komba winamensis is an extinct galago, a member of the primate family Galagidae, placed in the genus Komba. It was described by McCrossin in 1992, and the Paleobiology Database records it from Maboko in Kenya, in rocks of the Langhian stage of the middle Miocene, between about 16 and 13.8 million years ago. The genus as a whole is known from the early to middle Miocene of Kenya and Uganda. The sources read give its author, date, place and age but no measurements, diet or habits, so those are left unstated here.
