The Manasamody Sportive Lemur ("Lepilemur manasamody") is a sportive lemur endemic to Madagascar. Its coloration is primarily grey-brown. It is known only from Ambongabe and Anjiamangirana I, between the Sofia River in the south and the Maevarano River in the north.

There is some question as to whether the Manasamody Sportive Lemur is truly a separate species from Grewcock's Sportive Lemur. If not, Manasamody Sportive Lemur would be considered a junior synonym.
