The Bengal slow loris (Nycticebus bengalensis) or northern slow loris is a strepsirrhine primate and a species of slow loris native to the Indian subcontinent and Indochina. Its geographic range is larger than that of any other slow loris species. Considered a subspecies of the Sunda slow loris (N. coucang) until 2001, phylogenetic analysis suggests that the Bengal slow loris is most closely related to the Sunda slow loris. Order: Primates, Family: Lorisidae.
Synonyms:
Lori bengalensis Lacépède, 1800
Nycticebus cinereus Milne-Edwards, 1867
Nycticebus tardigradus typicus Lydekker, 1905
Nycticebus tenasserimensis Elliot, 1913
Nycticebus incanus Thomas, 1921
