Avahi betsileo Andriantompohavana, Lei, Zaonarivelo, Engberg, Nalanirina, McGuire, Shore, Andrianasolo, Herrington, Brenneman & Louis Jr., 2007: 44 View in CoL . “ Madagascar, Province de Fianarantsoa, Region Amoron’i Mania, District of Fandriana, Bemosary Classified Forest, 20º20 ' 60.1 '' S, 47º33 ' 36.1 '' E, and south of Mangoro River”. [DD]

Avahi cleesei Thalmann & Geissmann, 2005: 373 View in CoL . “ 18º59’S, 44º45’E, approximately 3 km east-northeast of the village of Ambalarano, western Madagascar ”. [EN]

Avahi meridionalis Zaramody, Fausser, Roos, Zinner, Andriaholinirina, Rabarivola, Norscia, Tattersall & Rumpler, 2006: 18 View in CoL . “Sainte Luce (approx. 47°11'E, 24°47'S), Province Toliara, Madagascar ”. [DD]

Avahi meridionalis ramanantsoavani Zaramody, Fausser, Roos, Zinner, Andriaholinirina, Rabarivola, Norscia, Tattersall & Rumpler, 2006: 19 View in CoL . “Reserve of Manombo (approx. 47°41'E, 23°01'S), Province Finarantsoa, Madagascar ”.

Remarks: Originally described by Zaramody et al. (2006) as one of two subspecies of meridionalis , but Andriantompohavana et al. (2007) considered it to be a full species based on the Phylogenetic Species Concept.

Avahi mooreorum Lei, Engberg, Andriantompohavana, McGuire, Mittermeier, Zaonarivelo, Brenneman & Louis Jr., 2008: 26 View in CoL . “ Madagascar: Province de Antsiranana, Masoala National Park (approximately S15º40΄0 0 8ʺ, E049º57΄476ʺ)”.

Avahi peyrierasi Zaramody, Fausser, Roos, Zinner, Andriaholinirina, Rabarivola, Norscia, Tattersall & Rumpler, 2006: 17 View in CoL . “Mahasoarivo (Ranomafana approx. 47°26'E, 21°16'S), Province Fianarantsoa, Madagascar ”. [DD]

Avahi unicolor Thalmann & Geissmann, 2000: 934 View in CoL . “Cacamba (=Kakamba), on the peninsula of Ampasindava, northwestern Madagascar, approximately 13°35'S, 47°57'E ”. [DD]

Remarks: Not listed in Groves (2001), probably because it was published too late to be included, but recognized as distinct by Groves (2005).
