Mount Tangkoko[4] is a stratovolcano in the north of Sulawesi island in Indonesia. Its summit has an elongated deep crater. On the east flank, there is a flat lava dome Batu Angus. Historical records only show eruptions in the nineteenth century.[2]
The Tangkoko Batuangus Nature Reserve, in the northern part of Sulawesi island, is named after the volcano and is a refuge for such species as the Celebes crested macaque and spectral tarsier.
