Lepilemur ankaranensis Rumpler and Albignac 1975 View in CoL
Lepilemur ankaranensis Rumpler and Albignac 1975 View in CoL , Am. J. Phys. Anthropol., 42: 425.
Type Locality: Madagascar, Ankarana Forest.
Vernacular Names: Ankarana Sportive Lemur.
Synonyms: Lepilemur andrafiamenensis Rumpler and Albignac 1975 .
Distribution: Montagne d’Ambre, Ankarana, Andrafiamena and Analamera regions, extreme N Madagascar.
Conservation: CITES – Appendix I; U.S. ESA – Endangered; IUCN – Vulnerable as included in L. septentrionalis .
Discussion: Shown by Rumpler et al. (2001) to be a distinct species, not a subspecies of L. septentrionalis ; they used the name L. andrafiamenensis for it, but Groves (1989:95), who synonymised andrafiamenensis and ankaranensis as a subspecies of L. septentrionalis , selected ankaranensis to have priority.
