Bunopithecus Matthew and Granger 1923 View in CoL
Bunopithecus Matthew and Granger 1923 View in CoL , Bull. Am. Mus. Nat. Hist., 48: 588.
Type Species: Bunopithecus sericus Matthew and Granger 1923
Synonyms: Hoolock Haimoff et al. 1984 .
Species and subspecies: 1 species with 2 subspecies:
Species Bunopithecus hoolock (Harlan 1834)
Subspecies Bunopithecus hoolock subsp. hoolock Harlan 1834
Subspecies Bunopithecus hoolock subsp. leuconedys Groves 1967
Discussion: This genus will have to be renamed and redefined, as Bunopithecus sericus is outside the modern gibbon clade and the Hoolock gibbon does not belong to the same genus ( Groves, 2001 c); this was the reason why Groves (2001 c) did not take the step of elevating the subgenera of Hylobates to generic rank.
