Different than a gibbons. According to the article, they are "an “old world” monkey found only east of the Mekong River in Laos, Cambodia, and Vietnam, douc langurs are one of the most strangely beautiful primates in the world. They come in three “shank colors”: Red (Pygathrix nemaeus), Black (Pygathrix nigripes), and Gray (Pygathrix cinerea), and they are all listed by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) as endangered or critically endangered."
The Gibbon family (Hylobatidae) is divided into four genera based on their diploid chromosome number: Hylobates, Hoolock, Nomascus, and Symphalangus -- Doucs are family Cercopithecidae, Subfamily Colobinae, and Genus Pygathrix.
