<P> The pygmy slow loris ( Nycticebus pygmaeus ) is a species of slow loris found east of the Mekong River in Vietnam , Laos , eastern Cambodia , and China . It occurs in a variety of forest habitats , including tropical dry forests , semi-evergreen , and evergreen forests . The animal is nocturnal and arboreal , crawling along branches using slow movements in search of prey . Unlike other primates , it does not leap . It lives together in small groups usually with one or two offspring . An adult can grow to around 19 to 23 cm ( 7.5 to 9.1 in ) long and has a very short tail . It weighs about 450 g ( 1.0 lb ) . Its diet consists of fruits , insects , small fauna , tree sap , and floral nectar . The animal has a toxic bite , which it gets by licking a toxic secretion from glands on the inside of its elbows . The teeth in its lower jaw form a comb - like structure called a toothcomb that is used for scraping resin from tree bark . </P>
