== Classification == Even though they are known as "douc [[langurs]]", they are in fact more closely related to the [[proboscis monkey]] and [[snub-nosed monkey]]s than to any of the [[langur]]s. They are part of the subfamily [[Colobinae]] of the family [[Cercopithecidae]]. {{Species table |genus=[[Pygathrix]] |authority-name= [[Carl Linnaeus|Linnaeus]] |authority-year= 1771 |species-count=three|no-note=y|narrow-percent=75}} {{Species table/row |name=[[Black-shanked douc]] |binomial=P. nigripes |image=File:Black-shanked_douc.jpg |image-size=180px |image-alt=Gray monkey |authority-name=[[Alphonse Milne-Edwards|A.
