Criteria system used
IUCN
(see Assessment details)
Assessment rationale/justification
The taxon is threatened due to its restricted distribution of less than 5000km2 extent of occurrence and 60km2 area of occupancy and continuing decline in area, extent and quality of habitat, and in the number of mature individuals, the latter inferred from threats to habitat and population from degradation and hunting. The taxon is also restricted to less than 300 mature individuals distributed in 20 locations and 12 subpopulations with no subpopulation having more than 50 mature individuals. Given its restricted extent of occurrence, threats on its population and habitat, and small numbers in fragmented patches, the M. assamensis pelops population in South Asia is categorized as Endangered.

Assessment rationale/justification
Macaca assamensis assamensis is found in around 46 locations and 32 subpopulations in India and Bangladesh, most of which are threatened due to human interference (see under threats). Habitat fragmentation over the years has depleted the area available for this habitat-specific taxon and restricted it to several small pockets that are nonviable. Hunting along with habitat degradation has reduced the total mature population of this species to around 300 in South Asia, a reason why it is categorized as Endangered in the region, although there are some populations that are contiguous with neighbouring Myanmar.

Assessment rationale/justification
The Hoolock Gibbon is found in around 126 locations and 97 subpopulations in India and Bangladesh, most of which is threatened due to human interference (see under threats). Habitat fragmentation over the years has depleted the area available for this habitat-specific taxon and restricted it to several small pockets that are non-viable. Hunting along with habitat degradation has been observed to reduce the population of Hoolock Gibbon in South Asia by more than 50% in the last 50 years (3 generations) due to continuing decline in extent of occurrence, area of occupancy and quality of habitat along with exploitation of the taxon in the wild. The rate of decline is also predicted to continue at the same level over the next 50 years (3 generations) since more habitat destruction is predicted for human settlements, increasing population, refugee problems, encroachments and hunting. The number of mature individuals is around 440 in South Asia, with no subpopulations having more than 250 mature individuals and a continuing decline of over 20% over 2 generations. The South Asian population is bigger than the few individuals found in Myanmar, hence the status is retained as Endangered.
