The skull of this remarkable animal is distinguished from the skulls of the 

 other Semnopitheci, by its highly arched, but rather narrow, retreating forehead; 

 by the great breadth of its orbits, the little marked prominence or arching of the 

 interorbital space compared with that of the other crested species in which it is 

 narrower than in S. froniatus ; by its broad but short and truncated facial portion ; 

 and by the more retreating character and less depth of the symphysis of the 

 lower jaw. 



This species is at once recognised by the bare, milky-coloured, nude area on its 

 forehead, by its remarkable, blunt-shaped crest, and by the long dependent tufts 

 from the forehead and sides of the face. 



Inhabits Borneo.
