Putty-nosed guenon (Cercopithecus nicititans). The greater spot-nosed monkey or putty-nosed monkey is one of the smallest Old World monkeys. It is native to West Africa and lives to some extent in rain forests, but more often in the transition zone between rain forest and savannah. It is primarily arboreal and often associates with monkeys of other species. The common names come from the monkeys' prominent white nose. Photographed at Limbe Wildlife Centre, Cameroon, Africa.
