Macaque \Ma`caque"\, n. [F. See {Macacus}.] (Zool.)
   Any one of several species of short-tailed monkeys of the
   genus {Macaca} (formerly {Macacus}), found in rocky regions
   of Asia and Africa; as, {Macaca maurus}, the moor macaque of
   the East Indies.

   Note: {Macaca mulatta} is the {Rhesus monkey}, much used in
         biomedical research, and namesake of the Rh factor used
         in blood typing (due to discovery of that factor in the
         Rhesus monkey).
