De Loys' Ape, given the proposed scientific names Ameranthropoides loysi and Ateles loysi, is an alleged large primate reported by Swiss geological explorer François de Loys in South America in 1920.
In 1998, historians Pierre Centlivres and Isabelle Girod published an article suggesting that the entire story of the strange encounter was a fraud perpetuated by Swiss anthropologist George Montandon.
