Ashy Red Colobus
Piliocolobus tephrosceles
The Ugandan red colobus (Procolobus tephrosceles) is an endangered species of red colobus monkey, recognised as a distinct species since 2001.

The Ugandan red colobus is an Old World monkey which is found in 5 different locations across Uganda and Tanzania.
