This was the local name meaning “ugly” used for these primates by the people of the Gonder area in northern Ethiopia when the German naturalist Rüppell “discovered” this species for science in the 1830’s. Males sport a larger heart-shaped bare batch encircled by pale fur, that shows off their dominance status. Photo by Adam Riley.
