The generic name is derived from the name Roxellanae legendary beauties Roksolana, distinguished by a snub nose. The Golden Snub-nosed Monkey  is an Old World monkey.  It is endemic to a small area in temperate, mountainous forests of central and south-western China. The Chinese name is Sichuan Golden Hair Monkey. It is also widely referred to as the Sichuan Snub-Nosed Monkey. Snow occurs frequently within its range and it can withstand colder average temperatures than any other non-human primates. Its diet varies markedly with the seasons, but it is primarily an herbivore with lichens being its main food source.  It is diurnal and largely arboreal, spending some 97% of their time in the canopy.
