The Francois' langur monkey is one of China's most endangered wild animals, and is noted as an endangered species on the International Union for Conservation of Nature's red list.

The species are found in China's Guangxi, Guizhou, Chongqing and Sichuan provinces, as well as the northeastern mountain areas of Vietnam.
