Slow loris	Several more species were named around 1900, including "Nycticebus menagensis" (originally "Lemur menagensis") by Richard Lydekker in 1893 and "Nycticebus pygmaeus" by John James Lewis Bonhote in 1907. However, in 1939 Reginald Innes Pocock consolidated all slow lorises into a single species, "N. coucang", and in his influential 1953 book "Primates: Comparative Anatomy and Taxonomy", primatologist William Charles Osman Hill also followed this course. In 1971 Colin Groves recognized the pygmy slow loris ("N. pygmaeus") as a separate species, and divided "N. coucang" into four subspecies, while in 2001 Groves opined there were three species ("N. coucang", "N. pygmaeus", and "N. bengalensis"), and that "N. coucang" had three subspecies ("Nycticebus coucang coucang", "N. c. menagensis", and "N. c. javanicus").
Sunda slow loris	Between 1800 and 1907, several other slow loris species were described, but in 1953 the primatologist William Charles Osman Hill, in his influential book, "Primates: Comparative Anatomy and Taxonomy", consolidated all the slow lorises into a single species, "N. coucang". In 1971 Colin Groves recognized the pygmy slow loris ("N. pygmaeus") as a separate species, and divided "N. coucang" into four subspecies. In 2001 Groves opined that there were three species ("N. coucang", "N. pygmaeus", and "N. bengalensis"), and that "N. coucang" itself had three subspecies ("Nycticebus coucang coucang", "N. c. menagensis", and "N. c. javanicus"). These three subspecies were promoted in 2010 to species status—the Sunda slow loris, the Javan slow loris ("N. javanicus") and Bornean slow loris ("N. menagensis"). Species differentiation was based largely on differences in morphology, such as size, fur color, and head markings. (At the end of 2012, the Bornean slow loris was itself divided into four distinct species.)
Philippine slow loris	In his influential 1953 book "Primates: Comparative Anatomy and Taxonomy", the primatologist William Charles Osman Hill placed all the slow lorises in one species, "N. coucang". In 1971, however, Colin Groves recognized the pygmy slow loris ("N. pygmaeus") as a separate species, and divided "N. coucang" into four subspecies, including "Nycticebus coucang menagensis". "Nycticebus menagensis" was elevated to the species level in 2006 when molecular analysis of DNA sequences of the D-loop and the cytochrome "b" gene demonstrated it to be genetically distinct from "N. coucang". The genetic evidence was corroborated by both a previous study (1998) on morphology (based on craniodental measurements) that indicated distinct differences between the subspecies that were consistent with separation at the species level, and a later study (2010) of facial markings.
Natuna Besar	The island is home to three species of non-human primates: the slow loris ("Nycticebus coucang"), the long-tailed macaque ("Macaca fascicularis"), and the Natuna leaf monkey (a.k.a. Natuna pale-thighed surili, "Presbytis natunae").
Parvoviridae	For example, a candidate parvovirus has recently been isolated by sequencing a histocytic sarcoma in a slow loris ("Nycticebus coucang"). The relationship between the virus and the sarcoma was not clear.
Nycticebus kayan	"N. kayan" is a strepsirrhine primate, and species of slow loris (genus "Nycticebus") within the family Lorisidae. Museum specimens of this animal had previously been identified as the Bornean slow loris ("Nycticebus menagensis"), first described by the English naturalist Richard Lydekker in 1893 as "Lemur menagensis". In 1953, all of the slow lorises were lumped together into a single species, the Sunda slow loris ("Nycticebus coucang"). In 1971, that view was refined by distinguishing the pygmy slow loris ("N. pygmaeus") as a species, and by further identifying four subspecies, including "N. coucang menagensis", the Bornean slow loris. The Bornean slow loris was elevated to the species level (as "N. menagensis") in 2006, when molecular analysis showed it to be genetically distinct from "N. coucang".
Nycticebus borneanus	"N. borneanus" is a strepsirrhine primate, and species of slow loris (genus "Nycticebus") within the family Lorisidae. Museum specimens of this animal had previously been identified as the Bornean slow loris using the scientific name "Nycticebus menagensis" – first described by the English naturalist Richard Lydekker in 1893 as "Lemur menagensis", – a scientific name now assigned exclusively to the Philippine slow loris. In 1906, Marcus Ward Lyon, Jr. first described "N. borneanus" from western Borneo. By 1953, all of the slow lorises were lumped together into a single species, the Sunda slow loris ("Nycticebus coucang"). In 1971, that view was updated by distinguishing the pygmy slow loris ("N. pygmaeus") as a species, and by further recognizing four subspecies, including "N. coucang menagensis". From then until 2005, "N. borneanus" was considered a synonym of "N. menagensis". The latter was elevated to the species level in 2006, when molecular analysis showed it to be genetically distinct from "N. coucang".
Bukit Baka Bukit Raya National Park	The park protects the habitat of clouded leopards, orangutans, sun bears ("Helarctos malayanus euryspilus"), maroon leaf monkeys, slow lorises ("Nycticebus coucang borneanus"), sambar deer and flying squirrels. Bird species in the park include the black hornbill, helmeted hornbill, common emerald dove, little cuckoo-dove and Bornean peacock-pheasant.
Lar gibbon	The lar gibbon can be found living in sympatry with several other primates and apes, including orangutans ("Pongo pygmaeus"), siamangs ("S. syndactylus"), pileated gibbons ("Hylobates pileatus"), purple-faced langurs ("Trachypithecus" spp.), Thomas's langur ("Presbytis thomasi"), slow loris ("Nycticebus coucang"), and several macaques ("Macaca" spp.)
Pygmy slow loris	The pygmy slow loris was first described scientifically by J. Lewis Bonhote in 1907. The description was based on a male specimen sent to him by J. Vassal, a French physician who had collected the specimen from Nha Trang, Vietnam (then called Annam, a French Protectorate) in 1905. In 1939, Reginald Innes Pocock combined all slow lorises into a single species, "Nycticebus coucang".
