<div class="tree_txt_unlinked"><p><em>Phaner furcifer</em>, the fork-marked lemur, is the largest-bodied cheirogaleid, and the only species within the genus <em>Phaner</em>.
It is found throughout Madagascar, easily identified by the dark rings
around the eyes that come together to form a stripe down the back.
They have long hindlimbs, and bushy long tails. Dentally, they have
procumbent upper and lower incisors, and long narrow tongues used to
obtain gums from trees. They are arboreal quadrupeds.</p>
