The red howlers are three species of howler monkeys that formerly were considered conspecific:
- Venezuelan red howler (Alouatta seniculus) – western Amazon Basin.
- Guyanan red howler (Alouatta macconnelli) – north-eastern South America.
- Bolivian red howler (Alouatta sara) – Santa Cruz Department, Bolivia.
Famous quotes containing the word red:
“He was as bald as a hump.
His ears stuck out like teacups
and his tongue, my God, his tongue,
like a red worm and when he kissed
it crawled right in.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
