Subspecies: :

Subspecies Aotus lemurinus subsp. lemurinus I. Geoffroy 1843

Subspecies Aotus lemurinus subsp. brumbacki Hershkovitz 1983

Conservation: CITES – Appendix II; IUCN – Endangered as A. l. griseimembra, Data Deficient as A. l. zonalis, otherwise Vulnerable as A. l. brumbacki and A. l. lemurinus .

Discussion: Gray-necked species group. Ford (1994) suggested that brumbacki is a subspecies of A. lemurinus ; followed by Groves (2001 c). Defler et al. (2001) argued that the described subspecies of A. lemurinus are probably full species, but more work (especially on karyotypes) needs to be done.
