The Grey-headed Lemur has a very limited range in the southeast of Madagascar and is one of the top 5 rarest primates.
Formerly called White-collared (Brown) Lemur, E. albocollaris, it was renamed the Grey-headed Lemur,
E. cinereiceps, in 2008.
The male Grey-headed Lemur, above, has dark fur with a black tail and a distinctive white beard.
The female Grey-headed Lemur, above, is browner with a brown tail and has only a tiny suggestion of a white beard.
The limited population continues to decline through loss of forest habitat to agriculture and trapping/shooting.
