Miller’s saki[1] (Pithecia milleri), also called Miller’s monk saki, is a species of saki family, a type of New World Monkey.
- Its range includes parts of northeastern Ecuador, southwestern Colombia, and possibly adjacent areas in Peru.
- The Miller’s saki belongs to the Pithecia monkey family. Species in this group are characterized as medium-sized monkeys with long, coarse hairs that swell up (known as piloerection) when approached in the wild, making them appear larger than they really are.
- The hair on their head is directed forward like a hood.
- Like other sakis, the males and females of this species have different colored fur, with the females being grayer on the face and overall and the males a darker grayish-black but with brown on the face and the forearms.
