The Crab-eating Macaque (Macaca fascicularis) is a primarily arboreal macaque native to Southeast Asia. It is also called the Cynomolgus Monkey and the Long-tailed Macaque.

M. fascicularis has been used extensively in medical experiments, in particular those connected with neuroscience. It has also been identified as a possible vector for monkeypox and is a known carrier of B-virus (Herpesvirus simiae). It is one of the types of monkeys that have been flown into space.

Nu îmi este foarte clar care este denumirea în română a acestei maimuţe. Un singur site românesc dă varianta "macacul comun" pentru "Macaca fascicularis": http://www.zootirgumures.ro/product.php/Primate/1/

agree  aurafas: "macacul cu coada lungă" pentru a fi riguroşi, că DEX-ul spune că are de obicei coada scurtă.
3 hrs
  -> Mulţumesc. Macacul cu coadă midi?!

agree  iulian dobreanu: Eu as spune macac si atat. Tot lui i se mai spune si maimuta caine (gr>cyno) sau macacul mare, dar tot despre macacul mancator de crabi e vorba, fara nici un fel de diacritice.
3 hrs
  -> Merge şi macac pur şi simplu!
