About Green Monkey (Chlorocebus sabaeus)

  • Kingdom: Animals
  • Phylum: Chordates
  • Class: Mammals
  • Order: Primates
  • Family: Old World Monkeys

The green monkey, also known as the sabaeus monkey, is an Old World monkey with golden-green fur and pale hands and feet. The tip of the tail is golden yellow as are the backs of the thighs and cheek whiskers. It does not have a distinguishing band of fur on the brow, like other Chlorocebus species, and males have a pale blue scrotum. Some authorities consider this and all of the members of the genus Chlorocebus to be a single widespread species, C. aethiops.
