Sulawesi macaque (SM) species are currently of interest to primatologists for genetic and behavioral studies world wide. However, there are no published reference hematological and serum biochemical profile values for several of the seven SM species. Twenty‐five clinically healthy, outdoor housed, ketamine sedated Macaca tonkeana and Macaca maurus were serially sampled (two to four times) over a 16‐month period (N = 68). Normal ranges were defined to include two standard deviations and 2.5–97.5 percentile. Significant differences in single sample date comparisons (P < 0.05) of species (serum Ca, MCHC), age (BUN, BUN/creatinine, alkaline phosphatase, phosphorus), gender (total protein, RBC, hemoglobin, HCT) and pregnancy (phosphorus and neutrophil count) groups were found. This normative data facilitates clinical evaluation of SM species and allows comparison to other macaque species.
