Sarawak surili

Mammals

The Sarawak surili (Presbytis chrysomelas), also called the Bornean banded langur or the cross-marked langur, is a primate of the family Cercopithecidae that is endemic to the island of Borneo. It occurs north of the Kapuas River in Kalimantan, Indonesia, in the Malaysian states of Sarawak and Sabah, and in Brunei. Its taxonomy is complex and disputed, and it has been treated as a subspecies of Presbytis femoralis or of Presbytis melalophos. It was formerly considered common but has declined drastically through persecution and habitat loss, and as of 2015 it was known from only five sites with a combined population of 200 to 500 individuals. It is believed to be one of the rarest primates in the world and the IUCN rates it critically endangered.
