Aotus lemurinus: Comments
Comment:
Comments: Gray-necked species group. Ford (1994) suggested that brumbacki is a subspecies of A. lemurinus; followed by Groves (2001c). Defler et al. (2001) argued that the described subspecies of A. lemurinus are probably full species, but more work (especially on karyotypes) needs to be done
Comment:
Status: CITES - Appendix II; IUCN - Endangered as A. l. griseimembra, Data Deficient as A. l. zonalis, otherwise Vulnerable as A. l. brumbacki and A. l. lemurinus
