The entire population of Guizhou snub-nosed monkeys, Rhinopithecus brelichi (Thomas, 1930), with an estimated size of 800 individuals occurs only in a restricted area of 400 Km2 in the subtropical semi-deciduous broadleaf forests of Wuling mountains in the Fanjingshan National Nature Reserve (Guizhou – China). Using data collected from captive animals at the Fanjingshan National Nature Preserve Rescue Center, we described the vocal repertoire of Rhinopithecus brelichi. We quantitatively described 9 vocal types and we discuss the acoustic properties of calls given by Rhinopithecus brelichi in the light of the quantitative studies available for the genus Rhinopithecus.

Abstract
The entire population of Guizhou snub-nosed monkeys, Rhinopithecus brelichi (Thomas, 1930), with an estimated size of 800 individuals occurs only in a restricted area of 400 Km2 in the subtropical semi-deciduous broadleaf forests of Wuling mountains in the Fanjingshan National Nature Reserve (Guizhou – China). Using data collected from captive animals at the Fanjingshan National Nature Preserve Rescue Center, we described the vocal repertoire of Rhinopithecus brelichi. We quantitatively described 9 vocal types and we discuss the acoustic properties of calls given by Rhinopithecus brelichi in the light of the quantitative studies available for the genus Rhinopithecus.
