Author: | É. Geoffroy, 1812. | Citation: | Ann. Mus. Hist. Nat. Paris, 19: 90. | Type Species: | Simia nemaeus Linnaeus, 1771. | Comments: | Rhinopithecus included in Pygathrix by Groves (1970) and Szalay and Delson (1979:404) and McKenna and Bell (1997); but see Jablonski and Peng (1993) and Groves (2001c), who recognized that the two are sister-groups but retained them as separate genera. |
