Raffles' Banded Langur

Presbytis femoralis

Raffles' Banded Langur

The adult Raffles' banded langur is an arboreal leaf-eating monkey of lowland and hill forests, now extremely rare in Singapore and parts of Malaysia. It moves with quick, precise leaps through the canopy and usually avoids the ground. Its diet is dominated by young leaves, with seeds, fruit, and flowers added when available. A notable fact is that the Singapore population has been the focus of intensive conservation work because only a small number remain there.
