Toque Macaque

  • The toque macaque is endemic to Sri Lanka, where it is locally known as 'rileva'. Sri Lanka plans to export 1 lakh Toque macaque monkeys to China.
  • The swirl of hair on its head top makes it different from other monkey species. Male monkeys are physically larger than females.
  • It is the smallest species in the genus ‘Macaca’ with the longest tail relative to its body size. Its scientific name is Macaca sinica.
  • These monkeys are found in dry areas and high hilly areas. These are classified as Endangered in the red list of International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).
