Robinson's banded langur (Presbytis robinsoni), also known as Robinson's banded surili, is a species of monkey in the family Cercopithecidae. It was formerly considered a subspecies of the Raffles' banded langur Presbytis femoralis, but genetic analysis revealed that it is no more related to Raffles' banded langur than it is to several other Presbytis species.[2][3][4][5] It lives in the northern Malay Peninsula, including southern Burma and Thailand.[6] It is listed as near threatened by the IUCN.[1]
