Absolutely NOT a Capuchin. Its one of the Macaques, I'm not sure which, I'm no expert and there a a lot of different Macaques. The well-known Rhesus Monkey is a Macaque, The Snow Monkey is a Macaque.

The so-called 'Barbary Apes' of Gibralter are Macaques.....the list goes on.

When this episode was filmed ( 1967) Stump Tailed Macaques or Pig tailed Macaques ( or both ) were being marketed

to the pet trade as 'Miniature Chimps' Those are the most likely suspects for Gilligans Monkey...maybe a Rhesus too.
