The Blue Nile Patas Monkey (Erythrocebus poliophaeus), also commonly known as the ‘moustached monkey’ is found in various regions of Africa. The monkey was initially categorised in the Erythrocebus patas subspecies of the Patas monkey family but a 2018 study revealed that they actually belonged to Erythrocebus poliophaeus .

This species of Old-World monkey was one under threat, but due to conservation practices is now thriving and falls under the ‘Least ‘Concern’ category of the IUCN red list.
