AI overview
Gibbons are apes belonging to the family Hylobatidae, which includes four genera and 20 species that live in subtropical and tropical forests across Southeast Asia, from eastern Bangladesh and Northeast India through Indonesia. They are important members of their forest ecosystems and have become subjects of conservation efforts, as evidenced by rehabilitation projects aimed at protecting these animals.

關於与「长臂猿」名称相近或相同的条目，請見「长臂猿 (消歧義)」。 属 长臂猿属 Hylobates 白眉长臂猿属 Hoolock 黑冠长臂猿属 Nomascus 合趾猿属 Symphalangus 長臂猿科（学名：Hylobatidae），哺乳綱靈長目的一科，即小型猿类。传统分类法只包括长臂猿属一属，現今根據其遺傳演化之間的時間，可分为四属，分别为：长臂猿属（44对）、白眉长臂猿属（38对）、黑冠长臂猿属(52对)和合趾猿属（50对）[1]。其分佈範圍東起中國雲南、海南省，西至印度阿薩姆邦以及整個東南亞地區[2]。棲地形態從一般熱帶雨林至常綠闊葉林不等，海拔範圍可至2700公尺（中國雲南省）。 习性 长臂猿善鸣。 產於亞洲，無尾，手腕關節靈活，擅於作手臂渡越的動作，動作快速靈巧，有森林特技家的美譽。 古籍中的描述 朝辞白帝彩云间，千里江陵一日还。两岸猿声啼不住，轻舟已过万重山。- 唐·李白《早发白帝城》。白帝城在今重庆市奉节县城东瞿塘峡口，江陵在今湖北江陵县。从白帝城到江陵约一千二百里，其间包括七百里三峡，由诗中可见，唐时两岸山林中长臂猿颇多。 自三峡七百里中，两岸连山，略无阙处。重岩叠嶂，隐天蔽日，自非亭午夜分，不见曦月。至于夏水襄陵，沿泝阻绝。或王命急宣，有时朝发白帝，暮到江陵，其间千二百里，虽乘奔御风，不以疾也。春冬之时，则素湍绿潭，回清倒影。绝巘多生怪柏，悬泉瀑布，飞漱其间，清荣峻茂，良多趣味。每至晴初霜旦，林寒涧肃，常有高猿长啸，属引凄异，空谷传响，哀转久绝。故渔者歌曰：“巴东三峡巫峡长，猿鸣三声泪沾裳。” - 北魏·郦道元《水经注》卷三四《江水》 参考文献 ^ Roos, C. & Geissmann, T. 2001.

Also called the lesser apes, gibbons differ from the great apes (chimpanzees, gorillas, orangutans and humans) in being smaller, exhibiting low sexual dimorphism, and not making nests. Like all of the apes, gibbons are tailless. Unlike most of the great apes, gibbons frequently form long-term pair bonds. Their primary mode of locomotion, brachiation, involves swinging from branch to branch for distances up to , at speeds as fast as . They can also make leaps up to , and walk bipedally with their arms raised for balance. They are the fastest of all tree-dwelling, nonflying mammals.
