Macaca tonkeana Meyer 1899 View in CoL
Macaca tonkeana Meyer 1899 View in CoL , Abh. Zool. Anthrop.-Ethnolog. Mus. Dresden, 7 (7): 3.
Type Locality: Indonesia, Sulawesi Tengah, Tonkean.
Vernacular Names: Tonkean Macaque.
Synonyms: Macaca hypomelanus (Matschie 1901) ; Macaca tonsus (Matschie 1901) ; Macaca togeanus (Sody 1949) .
Distribution: C Sulawesi, south to Latimojong, north to the base of the northern peninsula, between Palu and Parigi ( Indonesia); Togian Isls ( Indonesia).
Conservation: CITES – Appendix II; IUCN – Lower Risk (nt).
Discussion: M. nemestrina species group. Formerly included in Cynopithecus ; see Fooden (1969:106-115). According to Froehlich et al. (1998), the macaques of the Balantak Mtns on the E peninsula of Sulawesi constitute a separate species from those of the main part of the range; in this case, the name tonkeana would apply to the Balantak form. Whether one of the other synonyms applies to the better-known form from the western part of Central Sulawesi is unclear. Froehlich et al. (1998) said that togeanus (from the Togian Isl) is a hybrid swarm between the two. Does not include hecki ; see Groves (2001 c).
