The northern olingo (Bassaricyon gabbii), also known as the bushy-tailed olingo or, simply, the olingo (due to it being the most common of the species),[2] is an arboreal (tree-dwelling) member of the raccoon family, Procyonidae, which also includes the coatimundis and kinkajou. Native to Central America, it was the first species of olingo to be scientifically described; while it is considered by some authors to be the only “true” olingo species,[3] a review of the genus Bassaricyon had shown there to be a total of four species, two of those now being considered synonymous with the northern olingo.[2] Its specific name honors William More Gabb (1839-1878), who found and collected the first specimen for western science.[4][5]
