Lorisidae Gray 1821 View in CoL , London Med. Repos., 15: 298.

Genera: 5 genera with 9 species:

Genus Arctocebus Gray 1863 (2 species)

Genus Loris E. Geoffroy 1796 (2 species with 4 subspecies)

Genus Nycticebus E. Geoffroy 1812 (3 species with 3 subspecies)

Genus Perodicticus Bennett 1830 (1 species with 3 subspecies)

Genus Pseudopotto Schwartz 1996 (1 species)

Discussion: The original form of the name was Loridae (see Jenkins [1987:1] and McKenna and Bell [1997], but the more commonly used form Lorisidae was conserved by Opinion 1995 of the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature (2002 a). Goodman et al. (1998) recognized two subfamilies, Lorinae and Perodicticinae, for the Asian and African genera respectively, and included Galagoninae as a third subfamily. McKenna and Bell (1997) included Galagoninae and Lorinae as subfamilies, with Lorini ( Arctocebus and Loris ) and Nycticebini ( Nycticebus and Perodicticus ) as tribes; but their tribes are not monophyletic ( Groves, 2001 c).
