LONDON : PKISTED BY WILLIAM CLOWES AND SONS, I.IMITKD, LLKE STUEET, STAMFOUD STREET, S.E., AND GREAT WINDMILL STREET, Os-b \p PEE FACE The second Volume of the Cataloii,ue of Un emulate Mammals deals with the African Antelopes belonging to the Sub- families Bubalinie, Cephalophinre, Oreotragime, Neotraginse, Madoquinse and Eeduncinge, including the Hartebeests, Gnus, Duikers, Klipspringers, Oribis, Dik-diks, Keedbucks, Waterbucks and their allies. It is hoped that the third Volume will contain an account of the remainder of the Antelopes, of which the Gazelles constitute the most numerous section, and that it will also include the Prong- buck, the Giraffes and the Okapi. The present volume has been prepared by Mr. E. Lydek- ker, F.E.S., with the assistance of Mr. Gilbert Blaine. It need hardly be pointed out that the acknowledgments con- tained in Volume I. of the help received from the donors of specimens and from those who have contributed in other ways to the growth of the Collection apply with equal force to those who have assisted in obtaining? and determiniD^r the specimens described in the present volume. SIDNEY F. HAEMER, KceiKT of Zoolofjy. British Museum (Natural History), London, S.W. January 10, 1914. a A INTRODUCTION My labours in the preparation of the greater part of this volume have been much lightened by Mr. Gilbert Blaine, who has been good enough to examine, name, and catalogue the specimens in the Collection. In regard to the classifica- tion of the heterogeneous group of ruminants commonly included under the designation of " antelopes," it has been deemed advisable to follow the one adopted by Sclater and Thomas in The Booh of Antelopes, with such minor modifica- tions as are necessary in order to bring it, so far as possible, into accord with the emendations in regard to the position of certain generic groups and the limitations of subfamilies proposed by Mr. E. I. Pocock in his article on the Cutaneous Scent-Glands of Euminants, published in the Proceedings of the Zoologieal Society for 1910. In several cases considerable difficulty has been expe- rienced with regard to the numerous local forms of African antelopes for which separate subspecific names have been proposed, as the specimens in the Collection are quite insufficient to afford a clue as to the value of the characters upon which these forms are based. When such forms are from more or less widely sundered localities they have, as a rule, been recognised as distinct ; but in cases where several have been named from nearly adjacent, or even the same, districts, their right to distinction has not been definitely accepted, and the subspecific titles are merely entered seriatim, under the heading of the species to which they pertain. In all cases the responsibility for the recognition of such local races rests with the writers by whom the names were given, and not with myself. As in the preceding volume, special prominence has been given to external characters, more particularly the horns, in vi INTRODUCTION the definition of groups, in order to render the work more acceptable to sportsmen than would be the case if less easily appreciated features were given the first place. The opportunity may be taken of correcting the following errors in the first volume : — P. 81, last hne, for B. S. Gilnther read R. T. GnntJier.

The distributional area embraces practically the whole of Africa, where the country is suitable to these antelopes. In the Pliocene it included India. The three genera here recognised are distinguished as foHows : — A. Horns rising more or less vertically, ringed, with smooth tips ; face-gland with a single orifice leading into a hair-lined tube, which dips into the substance of the gland. a. Horns doubly curved, more or less sharply angulated, mounted on an elevated pedicle, and face abnormally elongated Buhalis. h. Horns simply curved, without sharp angulation, not supported on a pedicle, and face of normal proportions Damaliscus. B. Horns directed mainly outwards or downwards at starting, smooth throughout ; face-glands without central orifice and tube, their free surface consisting of a sparsely haired area of skin Connochcetes.

Approximate iDasal length of skull 13 inches ; maximum breadth 4^ inches. Good horns may measure from 13J to 15 inches along front curve, the maximum recorded length being lo^ inches. Information is lacking with regard to the distribution of this apparently rare species in North Africa. It has 1)een stated by Tristram that this hartebeest, which has long since been extinct in Egypt, exists in Syria and Arabia, and in support of this statement the authors of the Book of Antelopes refer to a pair of horns obtained by Tristram from the Arabs of Syria " apparently referable to a female of this species." The present writer has, however, been unable to find any other testimony that this, or any other, hartebeest inhabits south-western Asia. 64], a. Skin, mounted. Xorth Africa.

General colour darker and less distinctly rufous than in typical race, with buttocks and hind-legs differing less in colour from back, and flanks darker and yellower ; scarcely any dark hairs on chin ; horns approximating to those of swaynei noacki, but more rounded, with the tips directed more backwardly. No specimen in collection. C— Bubalis cokei nakupse. Bubalis nakurae, Heller, Smitlison. Misc. Collect, vol. Ix, no. 8, p. 6^ 1912. Typical locality Nakuru, B. E. Africa. According to its describer, " similar to neicmanni, of the Lake Eudolf district, but differing by its lighter body- coloration and narrower or less broadly bracket-shaped horns ; similar to colcci in size and general body-colour, but feet with a black band bordering hoof-clefts, and horns narrower and less bracket-shaped." In a later paragraph it is stated that these hartebeests have the horns less widely spread than those of neumanni^ and " more or less intermediate between those of cohci and jacksoni in shape, and on this account they have usually been considered hybrids between those species by sportsmen. This, however, is not the case, although they occupy a somewhat intermediate geographical position. They are found on the north-western edge of the range of cokei, and they are really surrounded by this species and actually removed by many miles from the nearest jacksoni. The Xakuru race is known only by a single herd, which inhabits the country lying between Lakes Xakuru and Elmentaita. From neumanni, which occupies the region bordering the north-eastern shores of Lake Eudolf, they are separated Ijy several hundred miles." That this liartel)eest (of which the type is in the U.8. National Museum) is not entitled to rank as a species, may be considered certain, as the under-mentioned specimens show an almost complete gradation to typical skulls of col^ci 1. 8. 9. 60.

Type in U.S. National Museum. Stated to differ from the typical race by its lighter colour, which is more huffish and less rufous on the body, while the rufous of the forehead of the latter is replaced by tawny. The skull is also stated to be, on the average, wider, with shorter and wider horn-pedicles (width of latter 94 cm., length 114 cm.).

In this species, which may be only a race of cokei, the horns are intermediate to a certain extent between those of the tora-cokci and those of the lelwel-caama group. Those of the male are thicker and less divergent, with less distinct ridges, than those of tora, while they do not present the distinct V-shape characteristic of lelwcl.

General colour lighter yellow rufous than in any other race. In the skull the nasals and the upper series of cheek-teeth larger than in jacksoni, the former measuring 9 J inches (234 mm.) and the latter 4^^^^ inches (105 mm.). In addition to the parallelism or slight convergence of their tips, the horns differ from those of jacksoni by their straighter profile, and by the angle at base of tips being more obtuse. 13. 3. 1. 1-3.

Transvaal, and British Bechuanaland. Tlie Basuto hartebeests now live in mountainous country, at an elevation at Avhich much snow falls in winter. Two races mav be reco2[nised : — a. South of Orange Eiver. Exticct some time after 1811 ; exact colour unknown B. caama caama. b. North of Orange River ; general colour as above B. caama seJhorud. A.— Bubalis caama caama. Typical locality Cape Colony ; extinct. B.— Bubalis caama selbornei. Bubalis caama selbornei, Lijdell-er, Proc. ZooJ. Soc. 1913, p. SiiO ; Ahs. p. 19. Typical locality Kimberley, the herd there ha^•ing apparently been imported from the Transvaal. The range is taken to include all the country noith of the Orange Eiver inhabited by hartebeests.

R. Ac. Sci. Paris, vol. cxliv, p. 217, 1907; Lydehlier, Game Animals of Africa, p. 150, 1908. Typical locality Ituri Forest. Distinguished from the typical form of C. natalensis by the more exclusively sombre colour of the face, the wholly red head-crest, which shows no black hairs, the brighter tint of the forehead, and the rather larger bodily size. As this duiker is not included by Wroughton among the races of C. natalensis, it is provisionally allow^ed specific rank, although it is probaldy nothing more than a local form of the latter.

A medium-sized species, standing about 18 or 19 inches at shoulder, distinguished from C. natalensis by a blackish blaze on the face — widest on the forehead — and the dark shanks and feet. It is further distinguished by the greater uniformity of colouring, which is scarcely paler below than above, and by the absence of pale bay on cheeks, sides of neck, and throat, as well as of a white chin. General colour deep chestnut, scarcely paler l)elow than above, but head-crest and middle line of face blackish, and contrasting strongly with rufous eyebrow-streak ; nape rather browner ; limbs from knees and hocks downwards, and tail, except for some white hairs in terminal tuft, blackish. Horns short, somewhat expanded at base; skull with convex frontal region ; hoofs relatively long. Basal length of skull Qj, maximum breadth 3^ inches.

Typical locality Euwenzori, E. Africa. Closely allied to nigrifrons and claudi, from both of which it differs by the presence of a white chin-patch, while from the latter it is also distinguished by the absence of a dark area on the shoulders and of a dark ventral stripe, as well as by the dark portion of the hind-legs including the hocks. The skull-characters mentioned under the heading of claudi, together with the table of measurements, serve to distinguish this species still more markedly from nigrifrons. 74 CATALOGUE OF UNGULATES General colour of thick, close, and rather woolly hair uniformly rich chestnut, with the basal portion of the hairs greyer, and along the middle line of the back, especially near the loins, showing tlu^ough, and thus communicating a darker shade to that line ; hair of neck directed (as usual) back- wards ; a white chin-patch ; under-parts paler rufous, becom- ing whitish between legs ; from shoulders and hips colour gradually darkening to the knees and hocks, which, like the shanks, are blackish ; tail short, black grizzled with rufous and white above, and dirty white beneath and at tip. 6. 7. 1. 199.

Stated to be larger, heavier, and darker than dorsalis, from which it is also distinguished by the higher part of the upper lips being white, like the chin, and by the presence of a white spot above each eye, terminating in a white line directed towards upper part of nose. Very probably not more than a race of dorsalis. No example in collection. CEPIIALOPHIN.'E 83 (?) CEPHALOPHUS EMINI. Cephalophus emini, Noack, Zool. Anz. vol. xxvii, p. 405, 1905 ; LydekJicr, Game Animals of Africa, p. 166, 1908. Described on the evidence of a lieadless skin from East Central Africa, probably west of the Victoria Nyanza, said to indicate a duiker of the leucog aster-dor salis group, charac- terised by the length of the rufous brown hair of the back, and the presence of a yellow ring on each hair of the under- parts, which communicates a speckled appearance to the coat of this surface. Even supposing the generic determina- tion to be correct, the right of this form to a specific position is uncertain. XVIII. CEPHALOPHUS OGILBYI. Antilope ogilbyi, Waterliouse, Proc. Zool.

The smallest of the red duikers (agreeing approximately with the blue C. natahnsis), representing a dwarf type of the dorsalis group with the black areas replaced by grey, and the rufous, or chestnut, typically of a lighter tint than usual. Height at withers about 14 inches; horns very small; direction of hairs on nape normal. General colour bright yellowish rufous or ochery buff on sides of face, neck, shoulders, flanks, rump, and under-parts, bluish grey on middle line of nose, forehead, back of head and ears, middle line of back from withers to rump, and lower part of limbs ; crest long, blackish ; tail rufous above at base, black at tip. Skull with long and slender muzzle and deep lachrymal pits; central palatine notch about i inch in advance of lateral ones ; basal length SJ, maximum width 2|, interval from orbit to muzzle 2| inches. Length of ear 2^, of hind- foot 7 inches. The slate-coloured legs and dorsal stripe, together with the thicker horns, serve to distinguish this species from the much larger C. harveyi and C. nigrifrons. This range extends along the west coast of Africa, from Gambia to the Niger. The two local races are distinguished as follows :— a. General colour yellowish rufous or ochery buff ; nape, dorsal patch, and feet smoky grey C r. rufilatus. h. General colour burnt-sienna; nape, dorsal patch, and feet slaty grey C. r. rubidior.

Typical locality Fernando Po. Differs from maxwelli by its inferior size (shonlder-lieight about 13 inches), and by the brown of the back shading into black on and at each side of the base of the tail, below which there is a sudden change to white on the hips. Foot-glands consisting of a simple tube, not extending so far as the lateral hoofs, and not expanded into a dilatation between the bones in the manner of maxivelli. Horns of males but little larger than those of females. The range includes the country south and east of the Niger, extending on the west coast from the Cameruns to Angola, and eastwards to the coast, opposite Zanzibar, Uganda, and B. E. Africa. The following features serve to distinguish four of the local races of the species : — A. Black of back extending on to croup. a. Under-parts pale slaty brown C. m . melanorheus. h. Under-parts darker (dark isabella-brown) C. m. cequatoi'ialis. c. Under-parts drab C. m. musculoides. B. Black of dorsal area restricted to region imme- diately round root of tail Cm. anchietce. The fifth race is too imperfectly known to be included in this key. CEPHALOPIIINyE 97 A.— Cephalophus melanorheus melanorheus.

Differs from typical race by the darker under-parts, which are described as dark isabella-brown. Pocock (who suggested that this duiker may be merely a race of melano- rheus, from which it was considered inseparable by Pousargues) states that the foot differs from that of maxicelH by the absence of white spots on the back of the pastern and on front above main interdigital cleft.

Heller classes both this form and mquatorialis (which was described by Sclater and Thomas as very close to melanorheus) as races of monticola, in which he may perhaps intend to include melanorheus.

Typical locality Mlanje, Nyasaland. Distinguished from C. monticola by the larger amount of rufous on the limbs and body, the much longer and narrower skull, and the elongated hoofs. Typically the back a darker brown than in monticola, with a stronger tinge of rufous ; shoulders, flanks, and thighs dull deep rufous ; under-parts greyish rufous ; limbs, except between inner and lateral hoofs, where they are brown, bright rich rufous; rump dark chocolate-brown ; under side of tail still darker blackish brown ; forehead (as usual in the group) dark with rufous eyebrow-streaks ; backs of ears brown, with a small rufous patch near front of base ; a few white patches on under side of body between the fore and the hind legs. Basal length of skull 4-5-^g inches (115 mm.), maximum width 2\ inches (56 mm.), length from orbit to muzzle 2f inches (67 mm.). The two races are distinguished as follows : — A. A considerable red area on flanks and thighs, and legs strongly rufous C. n. nyasce. B. Red area on body larger and legs more strongly rufous C. n. defriesi. A. — Cephalophus nyasae nyasse.

Typical locality Itambe, between Lakes Mweru and Tanganyika, northern Ehodesia. Type in Tring Museum. Differs from typical race by larger extent of red on flanks and thighs and more strongly rufous legs ; the greater amount of white on under-parts, the paler greyish brown of upper surface, and the broader and more rufous brow-streak. The type is very similar to the Mlanje specimen of nyasce nyasm. No specimen in collection. C— Cephalophus nyasse eong-icus. Cephalophus nyasee congicus, Lonnberg, Arkiv Zool. vol. iv, no. 16, p. 12, ]908; Lydeliker, Game Animals of Africa, Supi)l. p. 8, 1911. Typical locality Congo. Type in Stockholm Museum. Distinguished from typical race by the back being warm sepia, of nearly the same tint from nape to rump. Towards the flanks this shades off into light smoky grey, with a slight huffy tinge, due to the tips of the hairs being of that colour, while the under surface is white. On the hams the hairs are sufficiently rufous at the tips to communicate a tinge of this colour, although the rest of the hairs are of the same grey as the flanks. The rufous tinge of the hams is sharply defined from the dark sepia-brown of the rump, but CEniALOPiiiNy?': 105 shades into that of the back. The legs are rufous, with a smoky brown mark above the sides of hoofs ; face nearly black, with a dull rufous brown stripe ; tail black above and white beneath. Xo specimen in collection. XXIX.

Type apparently in Berlin. Said to be distinguished from C. nyascc l)y having more, instead of less, white on under-parts, as compared with moiiticola, by being apparently less rufous on body, and by lacking the usual dark markings on back of pasterns '; legs rufous, as in monticola ; hoofs smaller than in either that species or nyasce. 7. 6. 2. 106.

Hist. ser. 8, vol. v, p. 92, 1910. Typical locality Lukenye Valley, South Central Congo. Smaller than nyasce, with a relatively short skull ; median dorsal area dark vandyke-brown for a breadth of about three inches, passing through burnt-umber into deep rufous on flanks and limbs ; under-parts paler rufous, with the median region whitish, and the bases of the hairs everywhere grey ; under side of lower jaw whitish ; throat dull russet ; crown and top of muzzle dark brown ; eyebrow-streak and cheeks reddish; a line on inner side of fore-legs and thighs white, limbs otherwise rufous. Basal length of skull oyf inches (99-5 mm.), maximum width 2-Jg inches (51-5 mm.), length of upper series of cheek-teeth 1-fg inches (32-5 mm.). Its general reddish colour distiuguishes this duiker from C. 106 CATALOGUE OF UNGULATES melcmorheus cequatorialis ; wliile the shortness of the skull serves to differentiate it from C. nyasce, which it closely resembles in external characters. 9. 12. 12. 13.

Typical locality Urori, German East Africa. A member of the monticola-mclanorheus group distin- guished by its large size and dark colour, as well as by the brown legs, which therefore differ from the red ones of monticola and hecki. General colour dark umber-brown, with forehead and top of muzzle nearly black ; crest, wdiich is unusually long, black ; sides of face brown, with a whitish line above eye ; backs of ears black on the front half ; neck brown, like back, with hair of nape directed forwards ; back darkening almost to black on loins, but no lighter patch on outer side of hips adjacent to this dark area, as in melanorheus, and the hips themselves uniformly brown, as in monticola ; under-parts and inner sides of fore-legs pale mouse-colour ; chin, under surface of jaw, and groin whitish ; limbs dark brown, like back.

Distinguished from all other members of the group except CEPHALOPIIIN/E 109 the next by the markedly obtuse angle formed by the relatively long and slender horns with the plane of the face, the longer and pointed ears, and the lighter and more slender build. Size medium to small, the shoulder-height ranging from 23 to 25 inches. Cieneral colour varying from pale greyish brown with a distinct blackish grizzle, owing to dark and light annulations on the hairs, through a yellowish phase, to uniformly bright ochery yellow. Horns generally absent in female. Inguinal glands present. The species is taken to include all but one of the duikers in which the horns form a marked angle with the plane of the face, l^ocock,* while remarking that ahyssinicus is very closely allied to the typical r/rimmi, considers that it is probably only a subspecies of coronahts, to which he refers ca7n2:)hellice as a second subspecies : f if these views be correct, there can be little hesitation in regarding all the local forms of these obliquely liorned duikers as referable to a single species. In this extended sense the range of the species will include the greater part of the more open parts of Africa south of the northern tropic, these duikers being less addicted to thick covert than are the members of the other two suIj- genera. The following is a provisional attempt to form a "key" to the local races of the species ; — a matter of great difficulty, owing to the slight differences on which many of them have been founded : — A. Ears long, as much as 4^ inches ; size large ; shoulder height 23 to 25 inches. a. Forehead rufous. a'. General colour grey fawn above and below C. g. grimmi. h'. General colour yellower (yellowish brown). a". Short black tips to hairs; under-parts dark C- 9- flavescens. b". Black tips larger; under-parts white ... C. g. altifrons. h. Forehead with dark blaze, forming upward extension of nose-stripe C. g. splendidiilus. B. Ears shorter, 3^ inches or less in length. a. Pasterns yellow at sides ; size small, 17 or 18 inches at shoulder. a' . Coat nearly uniform yellow C- 9- coronatus. b'.

Ears longer than interval between inner canthus of eye and extremity of nose, with narrow, pointed tips ; general colour pale greyish brown (grey fawn), grizzled with black, owing to the yellowish and blackish brown annulation of the hairs ; face rufous, with a deep brown longitudinal patch on nose ; under-parts like back ; chin, inner sides of upper portion of limbs, and lower surface of tail white or whitish ; an indistinct brownish line down part of fore-legs near knees ; pasterns wholly brown ; more or less of upper side of tail black. Horns may attain a length of over 6 inches. Skull long and narrow, with the lachrymal depression of median length, and its superior border generally rounded ; muzzle long ; median palatine notch penetrating deeper than lateral ones. Basal length of skull 7^, maximum width 3|, length from orbit to muzzle 4g inches. The range probably extends about to the Zambesi. 626, h. Skull, with horns. Zululand. Type of C. hur- chelli.

Approximately of the same size as Jiindei, but distinguished by the brighter ochery coat, of which the general colour is ochery buff; hairs drab at base, those of the neck being ochery buff to the tips, those of the back with short black tips ; under-parts white, more distinctly so than in Jiindei ; dark nose-mark prolonged to base of horns. Typically the speckling of the back with black so inconspicuous as to make the coat appear uniformly coloured at a short distance. This, however, is not the case with No. 96. 4. 24. 1, in which the dorsal speckling is conspicuous, while the fronts of both fore and hind legs are more heavily marked with dark brown than is the case in the type specimen. 94. 6. 7. 7.

(j. coronatus^ with a rufous forehead, and white throat, under- parts, and inner sides of limbs ; general colour brown, darker on back ; legs black ; tail black above, white below ; rings round eyes, spot at base of ear, and insides of ears white. This species was described from two living specimens in the Berlin Zoological Gardens, reputed to come from Angola. It has been contrasted by Thomas with waUceri, from which it differs by the rufous forehead and white under-parts. No specimen in collection. Subfamily vii.— OREOTRAGINiE. The single genus (and species) of small antelopes forming this group was included by Sclater and Thomas in the Neotragince, but is regarded as the type of a separate sub- family by Pocock on account of differences in foot-structure.* Tail a mere broad stump. Muzzle with a large bare muffle and small nostrils. Face-glands normal, approxi- mated to eyes ; no foot-glands ; web of pasterns not folded l)ack on itself to form posterior wall of an interdigital cleft, but area between hoofs covered (as in Neotragince) with long hairs i'rom the front of pastern to the back, so that there is merely a small bare patch at summit of web ; hoofs trun- cated at tips, with their basal portion raised high above the ground in walking ; inguinal glands not definitely known. Teats two. Lateral hoofs present. Horns, in the form of short spikes, generally absent in females ; skull, which is very broad, with large lachrymal depressions, and small lachrymal vacuities ; frontals not prolonged backwards between parietals, and horns placed above hind rims of orbits. Upper molars of medium width, without internal accessory columns. The distributional area includes the mountainous tracts of the greater part of Ethiopian Africa. * mitimeyer, Abh. schweiz. pal.

Eelatively .small antelopes, with well-developed slender tails of moderate length, and a large bare muffle extend- ing nearly as far back as hind angles of nostrils. Face-glands, when present, in the form of a valvular invagination, with their circular orifices approximated to the eyes ; web of pasterns folded back on itself to form posterior wall of an interdigital cleft ; other characters of this part as in Oreotragince ; hoofs normal ; inguinal glands apparently present. Teats two* or four.f Lateral hoofs present or absent. Horns absent in females, except abnor- mally ; those of males in the form of short simple spikes, more or less annulated at base ; skull more or less elongated, with large lachrymal depressions and small lachrymal slits ; frontals much the same as in Oreotragince, as are also the upper molars. The distributional area includes the gTeater portion of Ethiopian Africa. The following is a key to the genera included in the subfamily : — A. A bare patch below ear Ourehia. B. No bare patch below ear. a. Horns vertical ; lateral hoofs present or absent... Bapliicerus. h. Horns inclining backwards in or near frontal plane ; lateral hoofs wanting Neotragus. * W. L.

Size somewhat larger than in Madoqua ; females apparently not bigger than males ; muzzle normal, with a small naked area ; crown of head not tufted ; ears very large ; no face- glands ; tail short; hoofs short with pads on supporting surface ; minute lateral hoofs present ; heel- tie in the form of a double fold, of which the front one projects as a kind of ridge ; horns of males longer than skull. Skull short and broad, with relatively short nasals and long premaxillae, small and shallow lachrymal pits, and inflated auditory bulhie. The distribution is restricted to the mountains of Somali - land and part of Abyssinia. Placed by Sclater and Thomas in the Antilojnnce, this genus was associated with Madoqua as a separate subfamily in 1910 by Pocock, who considers that the foot-glands are essentially of the dik-dik type. A superficial resemblance of the feet of the beira to those of goats and sheep is an adaptation to a mountain life. DOECOTRAGUS MEGALOTIS. Oreotragus megalotis, Menges, Zool. Anz. 1894, p. 131.

Large or medium-sized antelopes, with horns only in the males, which are ridged, and usually curved and distinctly heteronymous, but may form simple spikes. Muzzle naked ; face-glands rudimentary or wanting, but the lachrymal depression in the skull always absent; inguinal glands present or absent ; foot-glands wanting except in Pelea ; two ]Dairs of teats ; .false hoofs well developed ; main hoofs united almost throughout their basal length by an interungual band 198 CATALOGUE OF UNGULATES of bare integument, extending forwards from the " heels " ; * no metatarsal glands ; tail moderate. Although smooth in front of the orbits, owing to the absence of a depression in the lachrymal, the skull has a pair of deep pits in the frontals, generally lachrymal vacuities, the auditory bulke large and inflated, and normal premaxillse and nasals. The crowns of the second pair of incisors have expanded summits ; the upper molars are relatively narrow, without an inner accessory column, except in the first of the series. When large, the horns, which are strongly ridged, except at the tips, are frequently directed backwards at the base, and then curve upwards and forwards at the tips, but they may have a sublyrate, sigmoid curvature. At the present day the group is restricted to Ethiopian Africa, but during the Pliocene it existed in India and other parts of Asia. Pocock t remarks that the members of this subfamily differ markedly from the Ncotragince [and Madoqiiince] " in the structure of the feet, since they entirely lack the deep and long interdigital cleft on the front of the pastern. . . . With the exception of the Indian genera of Tragclaphinm, the preorbital gland is absent in that group ; and in the Cervicaprince [= Eeduncince] it is at most represented by integumental thickening. In both groups, and in no other subfamilies of Bovidm, two pairs of inguinal pouches have been recorded. More significant still is the fact that the structure of the feet, whether pedal glands be present or absent, is the same in the Cervicaprince as in the Tragclaphince. Corroborating these characters are the presence of two pairs of mammae and a moderate or large rhinarium [muffle], to which may be added the invariable absence of horns in the females of Cervicaprince and in [those of] most genera of Tragclaphince'' The subfamily may be divided into the following genera : — A. Horns small and spike-like ; summit of muffle swollen, glandular, and extending beyond posterior notch of nostrils; no face-glands; foot-glands in both pairs of limbs Pelea. * See page 172. t Proc. Zool. Soc. 1910, p. 917. KEDUNCINiE 109 13. Horns large and curved; mullle usually normal, not extending beyond notch of nostrils ; foot-glands represented, at most, by the duct. a.

Size large, the shoulder-height heing about 36 inches, and the length of the skull 11^^ inches (290 mm.). Skull narrow across orbits, with long rostrum— length bi mches (164 mm.)— and small orbits. General colour light greyish fawn strono-ly but finely grizzled with brown, and having a more' or less fulvous tinge, which becomes pronounced on the head and neck, so as to cause a marked contrast between their tint and that of the body; occasionally a brown patch on muzzle or crown ; chin and under-parts white ; back ot ears pale fawn, without black tips; a whitish patch at base of ears round the subauricular bare area, the latter clothed m 206 CATALOGUE OF UNGULATES young animals with short, velvety, white hairs ; fore-legs generally black in front from knees to hoofs, fawn on outer and white on inner surface ; hind-limbs frequently with similar black markings on lower part of shanks ; tail thick, bushy, and reaching half-way to hocks, with the root and upper surface fawn, and the tip and under side white. Horns relatively long, with a moderate but not abrupt hook-like curvature at tips ; the growing pad at their bases persistent throughout life as a soft, rounded swelling. Good horns range from 15 to 17 J (18, it is stated in one instance) inches in length, and from 5 to 6J (in one case 7i) inches in girth, with a tip-to-tip interval of from 9^ to 20J inches. Basal length of skull about 10^ inches (259 mm.), maximum width 4j inches (120 mm.), interval between muzzle and orbit 6 J inches (158 mm.). The French-grey form from Nyasaland described as Cervicapra tlwmasinm seems to be merely an excessive development of the greyness characteristic of this species, and is probably restricted to individuals sprung from a single parent stock. The resemblance in colour of this phase to Pclea is very notable. The range extends from South Africa to the Bahr-el- Ghazal on the eastern side of the continent, and as far north as Angola on the west. The following two closely allied races are recognised : — A. Head and neck fulvous ; bod}", limbs and tail greyish fawn B. a. ariindinum. B. Head and neck greyer fulvous ; body, limbs, and tail rusty grey R. ci- occidentalis, A.— Redunca arundinum arundinum.

Type of Cervicapra, Eedunca, and Nagor. Typical locality Gori Island, off the coast of Senegal, West Africa. Size smaller than in ariindiimm, the shoulder-height ranging from ahout 27 to 28 inches, and the length of the skull from about 9/;j inches (225 mm.) to 10-^ inches (256 mm.). Skull generally similar to that of arnndinum, but with a relatively shorter rostrum and upper tooth-row. General colour yellowish, less grizzled and more fulvous than in amindinum, and that of head and neck not markedly contrasting with that of body ; dark markings on limbs less pronounced than in typical examples of arundinum or wanting. Tail shorter and less bushy. Horns relatively shorter and stouter, with the tips more abruptly hooked ; the length in good specimens ranging from about 9 to 14 J (in one instance 15) inches. The distribution includes Ethiopian Africa north of the Zambesi, where it is approximately co-extensive with that of the genus. The local races may be distinguished as follows : — A. Skull smallest in group — length about 8l| inches (225 mm.) ; upper row of cheek-teeth very short — ^^^ inches (54 mm.) ; horns short, strongly hooked forwards and inwards. Hair long ; general colour dark yellowish fawn B- r. rcdiinca . B. Skull larger ; upper tooth -row and horns longer. a.

Closely allied to the last, with which it agrees generally in cranial and dental measurements, and also in colour ; black markings on legs present. The chief distinction seems to be in the horns, which are rather larger, and have the points much turned inwards ; good specimens range from 10 to 13| inches in length, with a girth of from 4i to 7f , and a tip-to-tip interval of from 4J to 9i inches. Thomas regarded this race as nearly allied to redunca redunca, which he considered specifically distinct from r. bohor. Blaine affiliates it to the latter. The range includes portions of Uganda adjacent to British East Africa. 216 CATALOGUE OF UNGULATES 0. 8. 15. 1. Skull, with horns, and skin. Man Plateau, British East Africa ; collected by Sir F. J.

Skull relatively slight and shallow vertically; length lOy^g inches (255 mm.); length of upper series of cheek-teeth 2 J inches (63 mm.). Fine horns measure from 13 to 15 inches, with a girth of from 4 J to 6 inches, and a tip-to-tip inter^'al ranging from 7^ to 18 J inches. Of the three under-mentioned heads obtained by Capt. Gunthorpe in the Binder Valley — a tributary of the Blue Mle — one agrees with a typical cottoni, a second is clearly a donaldsoni, and the third of an intermediate type. These specimens, in conjunction with a fourth given to the writer Fig. 26. — Head op Sudani Bohor Reedbuck {Bedunca redunca cottoni), from Mongalla. Length of horns 16 inches, girth 5 inches, tip-to-tip interval 23J' inches. by Colonel Gunthorpe, show that these two supposed races are inseparable. In the writer's specimen the interval between the horn-tips is only 6 J inches, whereas in specimens from the Binder and Blue Nile valleys catalogued in the sixth edition of Ward's Records of Big Game, this interval ranges from 15 to 18 inches. The range extends from Kordofan, the White Nile, and the Isle of Meroe to the east of Lado and western Somaliland. 1. 8. 8. 42. Skull, with horns, and skin. Kaka, White Nile, Sudan. Presented hj R.

A very distinct species, of the approximate size of redunca redunca, distinguished from both the preceding species by the relatively greater interorbital width of the skull, its shorter rostrum and larger orbits, as well as l)y the shorter and straighter horns, which are less hooked at the tips. General colour grizzled greyish fawn, tinged with rufous, especially on the head and neck, where it contrasts with the body-colour ; chin, upper portion of throat, and under-parts, iis well as inner sides of limbs, white ; dark le^^-markings 222 CATALOGUE OF UNGULATES inconspicuous or wanting ; tail reaching about to level of groin, and very bushy, fawn above, and wliite below. Good horns range in length from 7 to 8| inches, with a girth of from 3 J to 5^, and a tip-to-tip interval of from 3 to 6 inches. In the skull the tympanic sheath, which encloses the tympano-hyal pit, is low, and does not extend downwards on sides of bullce ; knobbed processes of basioccipital small and short ; facial portion of lachrymal long, narrow, and extendinix on orbit well behind termination of nasal ; orbit large, its vertical diameter one-half length of nasal ; infra- orbital vacuity situated posteriorly above front end of penultimate upper premolar ; masseter knob on sides of maxillffi small; pit at base of condyles posterior to bullae deep ; lachrymo-nasal sinus narrow ; premaxilloe long. In the more typical members of the genus the skull differs by the longer tympanic sheath, the greater development of the knobbed processes of the basioccipital, the smaller orbit, and the wider and shorter lachrymal. The rans^e includes the eastern districts of Africa south of the Zambesi, more especially Natal, Zululand, and Bechuanaland, and thence through British East Africa to Gallaland. The races are distinguishable as follows : — A. Length of skull 9^^ inches (230 mm.), of upper series of cheek-teeth 2| inches (60 mm.).. B. f.fidvorufiila. B.

The following names have been applied to local forms of this species, but whether any or all are entitled to rank as distinct subspecies, the material in the Museum is insuffi- cient to determine.

This specimen belongs to a pale phase not uncommon in the Lorian Swamp and adjacent parts of the Guaso-nyiro. These pale-coloured Lorian water- buck, as mentioned by Col. W, H. Broun (Proc. Zool. Soc. 1905, p. 297), and also by Lord Gifford in The Field of August 6th, 1910, liave eyes of the normal colour, and tlius are not true albinos. Col. Broun's buck, which was in company with a white doe when shot, was obtained in July, 1904, on the right or north bank of the Guaso- nyiro, about twenty miles to the westward of the Lorian Swamp. Lord Gifford obtained two white bucks on the north bank of that river, where lie saw four other examples, as well as a calf on the south bank. He describes having seen a white male and female in company, but other- wise the wdiite individuals were mingled with normally coloured animals. One white calf is recorded as having been seen with a dark dam, but it appeared to have grey patches on the head and back. These accounts indicate that pale- coloured waterbuck are comparatively common in the Lorinn district, although they do not herd by themselves. These pale forms are referable to canescens, but they suggest a case somewhat analogous to that of the grey reedbucks (iic^/^/?i6Y6 arundinum) of the Songwi Eiver, near its entrance into Lake Nyasa (see p. 209).

Kobus defassa annectens, Schwarz, Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist. ser. 8, vol. xi, p. 494, 1913. Typical locality Badingua, Upper Shari Yalley. Described as intermediate between the preceding and the following form, being much darker than in tschadensis, with a shorter mane. Anterior portion of back, withers, and upper part of shoulders brownish red, strongly suffused with black and less contrasted with the colour of the neck than in tschadensis; neck similar, but with less black suffusion, owing to the shorter blackish tips of hairs ; crown and forehead brownish red ; middle portion of face similar, but some hairs with black tips, notably near muzzle; cheeks greyish red ; backs of ears reddish brown in basal two-thirds, ' apical third black, whereas in tschadensis only the extreme tip and in schubotzi the terminal fourth is blackish ; white of buttocks sharply contrasted with brownish red area bordering dark of rump ; hind-legs from hocks, fore-legs from below shoulders, and tail-tip brownish black ; light bands round lateral hoofs dirty white, those round hoofs brownish ; under- parts sooty brown, except inguinal region, which is white. g. Kobus defassa schubotzi, Schwarz, Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist. ser. 8, vol. xi, p. 495, 1913. Typical locality Duma, near Libenge, Ubangui (Ubangi) Valley, north-west Africa. Type in Senckenberg Museum. Allied to annectens, but distinguished by its shorter coat, more lirownish colour, blackish face, and more slender horns. The describer observes that " the pale K. d. tschadensis, with its long fur and indistinct markings, and the dark K. d. schuhotzi, with its bright markings and short coat, seem at first to represent different species rather than local forms of the same species, but the two are connected by K. d. annectens, which combines the long fur of ^. d. tschadensis with the dark colour of the present form." REDUNCIN.E 237 *^* For the characteristics of the following forms, the types of which, unless otherwise stated, are in the collection of Major Powell-Cotton at Quex Park, Birchington, Kent, reference must be made to the original descriptions. The colour of the forehead, the extent of the dark nose-patch, the length of the white eye-stripe, and the degree of extension of the whitish throat-patch towards the roots of the ears form some of the chief colour-differences. h.

Size intermediate between typical Kohus and Adcnota ; coat long and rough, not grizzled ; hair of back nonnal or reversed ; neck not heavily maned ; horns comparatively long and slender, sublyrate, with a more or less marked double (sigmoid) flexure ; a single pair of inguinal pouches. Distribution east southern and central eastern Africa. The members of this group — whether regarded as distinct species, or, as they may ultimately prove to be, local races of the lechwe — appear to present an analogy in the matter of coloration to the local forms of the typical species of the subgenus Adcnota ; rufous and foxy coloured forms inhabiting the more open districts, while in the hot, moist region of the swamps of the Sol)at the colour changes to l)lack. The transition from the typical rufous lechwe, through Smithe- man's lechwe, to the black Sobat form is, however, so far as present information goes, less nearly complete — l)oth in the matter of colour and horn-shape— than in the members of the kob group, and the various local forms are, therefore, accorded, at least provisionally, specific rank. The four representatives of the group — of which the second is provisionally recognised — may be distinguished as follows : — A. No white patch in front of withers. a. Hair of back not reversed ; general colour w^holly or mainly fulvous. a\ General colour wholly fulvous K.leche. b^. Some black on bases of shoulders and neck K. rohertsi. h. Hair of back reversed ; general colour of back, shoulders, thighs and face more or less blackish brown K. smitliemani. B. A large white patch in front of withers K. maria. III.

The horns are smaller and less massive, with broader and more approximated ridges. As this lechwe occurs in company with the true lechwe, it must be regarded — if anything more than a melanistic phase — as a species rather than a race. 13. 11. 26. 1. Body-skin.

Kohus rohcrtsi is stated to occur in the same area as the typical smithcmani, and according to Eothschild, Icchc is likewise found in the same district, but this is denied by Letcher, who mentions that while black lechwes swarm in the swamps round Lake Tumbwa, North-east Ehodesia, he never observed a single example of the true lechwe. Black lechwes, he observes, appear to be restricted " to the immense marshes which surround Lakes -Bangweolo and Mweru and Tumbwa in North-eastern Ehodesia, and in some parts of the Lukanga Swamp in North-western Ehodesia." A specimen entered below indicates, however, the extension of the range into Congo territory. 99. 2. 22. 1. Skin. Near Lake Mweru. Type. Presented hi/ T. Smithemcin, Esq., 1899. 3. 11. 17. 2.

Cobus coba, Lydehher, Game Animals of Africa, p. 210, 1908 ; Ward, Records of Big Game, ed. 6, p. 203, 1910. Kob. Type of Adenota. Typical locality Upper Guinea. A variable species, ranging in shoulder-height from about 34 to 36 inches, and in colour from rich orange fulvous, or foxy red, to dark blackish brown in adult bucks, with more or less white in the region of the eye ; coat short and sleek, reversed on middle of back from loins to neck ; front of fore-legs black, and frequently a white hoof-band ; muzzle, lips, chest, under-parts, and inner sides of upper portions of limbs white. The distribution embraces Equatorial Africa from Guinea to Uganda. The existence of a more or less complete transition in the matter of colouring from the typical red K. hoha to the dark blackish brow^n K. k. leucotis was pointed out in 1908 by the writer, who did not, how^ever, then propose to class the latter and the intermediate types as local races of the former. Subsequent information has, however, convinced him that this is the proper course to adopt. Evidence of such a gradation is afforded by the skulls and head-skins of two kobs from the Bahr-el-Ghazal, REDUNCINiE 255 probably referable to K. k. nigroscapidatus, which came under the writer's observation in 1911. One of these, obtained near the junction of the Bahr-el-Arab with the Baln^-el-Gliazal, was (as shown by the worn cheek-teeth) an older buck than the other ; it had blackish markings on the sides of the neck, and the tips of tlie backs of the ears fawn, but the rest dirty white — quite difterent from the pure white of Icucotis. The second and younger buck, killed on the' Jur Eiver (also in the northern portion of the Bahr-el-Ghazal), had no black on the neck, and the ears were foxy throughout. In both specimens, which were killed during August and September, the horns were stouter, shorter, and less curved than those of Icucotis, and, there- fore, more like those of thomasi. Both apparently belong to the same race, the differences in colour being due to difference in age, and they seem to indicate a race inter- mediate between the Icucotis type on the one hand, and thomasi on the other. Heller, Smithson. Misc. Collect, vol. Ixi, no. 7, p. 12, accepts the view that all the Nile kobs are races of Kohus koh. The following is a tentative key to the named races, some of which are only provisionally recognised as such : — A. Backs of ears fulvous; white orbital area usuaUy small. a. Size relatively large. a\ Horns short, slender, and long- pointed ; light patch above eye narrow, and that below eye pale buff K. h. thomasi. bK Horns stouter, short-pointed, and puku-like ; no white above eye . . . K. 7c. loderi (including poiisarguesi). b. Size (typically) smaller. a^. General colour wholly fulvous. a^. Size smaller ; a huffish white area above eye K. k. kob. &2. Size rather larger; flanks paler; skull narrower K. Tx. adolfi. C-. Size smaller; flanks darker K. h. bar-Tieetce. d-. Horns larger and heavier, general colour paler, and white patch above eye pure, and extending below end of tear-duct K. Jx. neumanni. 256 CATALOGUE OF UNGULATES b\ Some dark colouring, at least occa- sionall}', on body or neck. a^. Upper-parts in some cases dusky K. h. nigricans. b\ Hind-quarters black-speckled K. 7c. uhangiensis. B. Backs of ears often partially white ; white of orbital region larger ; ears frequently wanting black tips. a. Size small ; white orbital area medium K. Jc. alurce. b. Size large; whole orbital region white K. l\ notatus. c. Backs of ears white; white of orbital region large. a. General colour in dark phase blackish brown mingled with fulvous hairs ... K. l\ nigroscajjulatus. b. General colour (in adult males) deep black K. Ji-. leiicotis. In addition to the above, the name Adenota mengesi has been proposed by 0. Neumann (Sitzher. Ges. nat. Freundc, 1900, p. 560), on the evidence of a horn of a light, slender gazelle-like type from southern Somaliland. A.— Kobus kob kob.

Typical locality Upper Guinea. Size relatively small, the shoulder-height being about 34 inches. General colour orange fulvous, with a whitish ring round each eye and another round base of each ear ; the ears themselves being fulvous on the back, with indistinct black tips, and white internally ; an indistinct blackish stripe down front of fore-legs from some distance above knees to hoofs, usually interrupted by a white band just above the latter ; hind-legs similarly marked, but the black commencing about middle of shanks. Horns relatively small, good specimens measuring from 19 to 2 If inches in length, with a girth of from 6 to 7f , and a tip-to-tip interval of from 5J to 14J inches. The distributional area extends from Gambia to Nigeria. The writer follows 0. Neumann in considering anmdi^cs (p. 254) as inseparable from the present race. EEDUNCIN.-E 257 46. 11. 20. 9.
