The Javanese langur (Trachypithecus auratus) is an endangered species of monkey. It belongs to the subfamily of the sloth monkeys. This monkey lives mainly in Indonesia: in Bali, Lombok and eastern Java. Its length is 43 - 65 cm and its tail is 61 - 87 cm. Its weight is 5 - 8 kg. Adult monkeys can be either black or orange-brown coloured. Young are born with the orange brown colour and fade to their true colour within a period of 7 months. Langurs that will later turn black in colour often have a dark tail tip.
