Dian's Tarsier (Tarsius dentatus) also known as Diana Tarsier, is a nocturnal primate found and endemic to central Sulawesi, Indonesia. Its head-body length is 11.5-12 cm plus a tail of 22 cm. Dian's Tarsier lives in rain forests. It was formerly called T. dianae, but that has been shown to be a junior synonym.[1]
