The François' langur (Trachypithecus francoisi) is an endangered primate living in limestone forests in Vietnam and China. From October 2017 to August 2018, the habitat preferences and the range of the Francois' langur were surveyed in the Mayanghe Nature Reserve, Guizhou, People's Republic of China. To estimate the range and predict suitable habitat of François' langur, a Gaussian normal kernel density estimation and species distribution models (BIOMOD2) were used along with data on environmental variables and records of the langur's occurrence.
