Notes.
Three individuals of this species were sighted opportunistically (Table 2 View Table 2 ) in two different human-disturbed forest areas (Fig. 6 View Figure 6 ). Herbivorous and arboreal, this species eats leaves, various fruits, and seeds ( Tongkok et al. 2020). Each occasion this species was sighted was in secluded forest areas between human settlement areas.
