Eulemur cinereiceps

Animalia, Lemuridae, CR

Eulemur cinereiceps is a medium-sized lemur with a head-body length of 39–40 cm, a tail length of 50–55 cm, an overall length of 89–95 cm, and a body weight of around 2.0–2.5 kg (Tattersall, 1982; Bradley et al., 1997; Johnson et al., 2005). This species is sexually dichromatic. In males, the dorsal coat is gray-brown, the tail and lower limbs slightly darker, and a dark brown stripe often runs along the spine. The ventral coat is a paler gray, as are the head and face. A dark gray crown turns lighter on the neck and shoulders. Both the cheeks and beard are white or light cream and bushy. Coloration of the males of this lemur is very similar to that of E. collaris, except that male E. cinereiceps have white beards rather than the rufous beards of E. collaris. Female E. cinereiceps are virtually indistinguishable from female E. collaris, the coat being reddish-brown above with lighter underparts. \([\dots]\) https://lemursofmadagascar.com
