In Eritrea is de laatste reetkever gestorven. Hiermee is het diertje volledig uitgestorven.

Presumed extinct before its rediscovery in 1989, the Tonkin snub-nosed monkey is one of the world’s most endangered primates and is found in northern Vietnam.
The Pygmy Marmoset (Cebuella pygmaea) is a small species of New World monkey native to rainforests of the western Amazon Basin in South America.

It is generally found in evergreen and river-edge forests and is a gum-feeding specialist, or a gummivore. About 83% of the pygmy marmoset population lives in stable troops of two t
