Trachypithecus hatinhensis
At very high risk of extinction in the wild in the near future.
The lutung or Hatinh langur is a species of catarrhine primate of the family Cercopithecidae that lives in Vietnam, mainly in Quang Binh province. A recent study found a small population in Quang Tri province. Despite its name there is no record of its existence in Ha Tinh province. It resembles the closely related François' langur, but the stripes on its cheeks extend behind the ears, across the nape.
