editIs there updated info on the statement In October, a specimen was observed, captured, and released, although genetic tests have yet to determine if it is a new species.? It's cited to two 2010 sources, so it's likely this uncertainty could have been resolved by now. Hog Farm Bacon 04:53, 17 January 2021 (UTC)
- @Hog Farm: An article in the 2018 edition of Lemur News (pages 31–36) mentions the claim there could be a new species but doesn't conclude with certainty that the population is genetically distinct. Cheers, Jack (talk) 08:17, 15 July 2021 (UTC)
