"The synonymy of Lemur macaco and L. fulvus proposed by Schwarz (1936) has been accepted by many workers. The evidence for "intermediate" forms upon which this opinion was based is shown to be inadequate, and a case of sympatry of the two species in northern Madagascar is reported. Consequently it is clear that these forms can no longer be regarded as distinct only at the subspecific level. The name L. fulvus "flavifrons," still used by some authors, is based on inadequate material and cannot be identified with any known lemur population."
