The diet of the Sun-tailed Monkey is currently being studied, but it is known to contain fruits that are abundant throughout the year. It also eats seeds, grasses, small vertebrates, and insects. It occasionally raids crops from localvillages.

Sun-tailed Monkeyslive in unimale— multifemale groups. On average, a group has c.16 adult females. They appear to have few vocalizations and lack a loud call. It is thought that their tail coloring (white underside) and white throat ruff play a role in communication in their relatively dark forest habitat. They appearto thrive well in degraded secondary forests; i.e. population numbers remain stable after light logging because of the resulting increase in dense undergrowth. Population density varies with habitat suitability and seemingly elevation. At the Makandé Field Research Station, the density of Sun-tailed Monkeys was 25 ind/km?, but it was only c¢.4 ind/km? in southern Lopé National Park.

). The Sun-tailed Monkey is listed as Class B under the African Convention on the Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources. It was originally believed to be confined to its type locality in the Foret des Abeilles (south and west of the great bend of the Ogooué River and east of the Offoué River), but additional populations were discovered in 1994 and again in 2010, thereby extending the known distribution to ¢.18,000 km?®. The Sun-tailed Monkey was declared a “totally protected species” by the Gabonese government in 1994. Discovered in 1984, the Suntailed Monkey has become a flagship species for conservation in Gabon. Nevertheless, it continues to be hunted for its meat, despite being difficult to hunt because ofits secretive behavior. Its semi-terrestrial nature makes it vulnerable to the use of snares and dogs for hunting, butit is also killed by shotgun in growing numbers. The biggest threat to the Sun-tailed Monkey, however,is habitat loss, mainly due to logging;its type locality, the Forét des Abeilles,is largely allocated to logging concessions and is, therefore, unprotected. The Sun-tailed Monkey occurs in Lopé National Park in Gabon, and it has been seen very near the boundaries of Waka National Park and Birougou National Park. Only a small portion of the distribution of the Sun-tailed Monkey is in Lopé National Park, while the rest occurs in unprotected areas. Thus, better protection of its habitat is recommended. Monitoring of planned logging activity and better enforcement of hunting in the area are also urgently needed. Several Sun-tailed Monkeys are held in captivity in the Centre International de Recherches Médicales de Franceville in Gabon.
