Paragraph 2
Anthropologists say the Likweli is a
type of monkey. It has a
black coat, long fur, and a flowing tail. It also has stunning orange lips and
markings. Researchers from Florida Atlantic University said the Likweli has "distinctive
, dental, and skeletal characteristics". These distinguish it from
known colobus monkeys. Study co-
Professor Christopher Gilbert concurred. He said: "We analyzed museum collections, examining skulls, pelts, and skeletal
alongside specimens from known African colobus monkeys. Those
allowed us to demonstrate
that Colobus congoensis represents a
species."
