The proboscis monkey or long-nosed monkey (Nasalis larvatus) is an arboreal Old World monkey with an unusually large nose, a reddish-brown skin color and a long tail. It is endemic to the southeast Asian island of Borneo and is found mostly in mangrove forests and on the coastal areas of the island.[3]

This species co-exists with the Bornean orangutan and monkeys such as the silvery lutung.[4] It belongs in the monotypic genus Nasalis.[5][6]
