New species of African monkey discovered
Meet Cercopithecus lomamiensis, a newly discovered species of African monkey found in the central Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). Together with the ‘honk barking’ Highland mangabeys (Lophocebus kipunji) of Tanzania, C. lomamiensis is only the second new species of monkey discovered in Africa in the past 28 years.
