Abstract
Surveys were carried out in forest reserves in eastern Cote d'Ivoire i n 1997 to investigate the status of three primate taxa believed to be on the verge of extinction. The findings indicate that Procolobus badi us waldroni may be extinct, and that Cercopithecus diana roloway and C ercocebus atys lunulatus may become so unless urgent action is taken.
