The northern plains gray langur (Semnopithecus entellus) is a species of primate in the family Cercopithecidae. It is found in India on the lowlands north of the Godavari and Krishna rivers and south of the Ganges.[1] It is thought to be introduced to western Bangladesh by Hindu pilgrims on the bank of the Jalangi River.[2] Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry forests and subtropical or tropical dry shrubland. It is threatened by habitat loss.[2]

The southern plains gray langur (Semnopithecus dussumieri) was previously classified as a subspecies of S. entellus, i.e., S. entellus dussumieri.[3]
