WHAT DOES GREEN MONKEY MEAN IN ENGLISH?

green monkey

Green monkey

The green monkey, also known as the Sabaeus monkey or the Callithrix monkey, is an Old World monkey with golden-green fur and pale hands and feet. The tip of the tail is golden yellow as are the backs of the thighs and cheek whiskers. It does not have a distinguishing band of fur on the brow, like other Chlorocebus species, and males have a pale blue scrotum. Some authorities consider this and all of the members of the genus Chlorocebus to be a single widespread species, Chlorocebus aethiops — confusingly, the name "green monkey" has also been used for this single species.
