Lomami red colobus

Mammals

The Lomami red colobus, Piliocolobus parmentieri, is a red colobus monkey of central Africa. It was historically treated as a subspecies of the Central African red colobus, Piliocolobus foai, but more recent taxonomies generally treat it as a separate species. Its range is limited to lowland tropical rainforest between the Lomami River and the Lualaba River in central Democratic Republic of the Congo, and it extends as far south as the Ruiki River and the Lutanga River. It eats leaves, fruit, flowers, buds and possibly seeds. Males weigh about 9 kg and females about 7.5 kg.
