The Angolan dwarf galago (Galagoides kumbirensis) is a species of dwarf galago native to Angola,[1] and was named after western Angolan Kumbira Forest. Though 36 individuals of the Angolan dwarf galago were identified in September 2013, it was declared as a new species in 2017,[2] and is now the nineteenth species of galago to be identified.[3] Its call, described as "A loud chirping crescendo of longer notes, followed by a fading twitter", was enough to separate it as a new species, without any genetic identification, due to its uniqueness.[4]

It is by far the largest of its family, with a head-body length of Шаблон:Convert and a tail length of Шаблон:Convert. It is greyish brown in colour and has a darker tail.[5][6]

Though the species' status in the wild has not been formally identified, it is likely endangered due to large amounts of deforestation around its habitat area.[6]
