7. Gazella ruficollis. TheANDRA. 



Whitish ; neck and front part of the middle of the back reddish ; 

 no face-streak. 



Antilope ruficollis, H. Smith, G. A. K. v. 205. — A. Andra, Ben- 

 nett. — A. Bama, Licht. Saugth. t. 3, 4 ; Ruppell, Zool. Atlas, t. 14, 

 16; Ehrenberg, Symb. Phys. t. 6. — A. Bama, var. orientalis, Sun- 

 devall. — Gazella ruficollis, Gray, K. M. 5. 



Var. Young ? with an indistinct narrow brown streak across the 

 outside of the thighs, and the forehead iron-grey, with longer hair at 

 the base of the horns ; horns small. Mus. Frankfort. 



Inhabits North Africa ; Kordofan. Brit. Mus. ? . 



These species differ in size as well as markings. The Mohr and 

 Andra differ from G. Soemmeringii in being of much larger size, and 

 in wanting the black face and streaks. Bennett's Mohr has only an 

 angular white spot on the rump, like G. Soemmeringii ; Buffon' s 

 Nangeur is smaller, and has more white on the rump, thighs and 

 sides ; and the Andra, which agrees with the figures cited, is almost 

 all white, with a reddish neck and withers. 



*** Knees without tufts {but with rather longer hair, forming a 

 linear keel in front) ; back and rump brown; sides with 

 dark streak. 



8. Gazella rufifrons. The Korin. 



Bay brown ; sides above paler, with broad dark streak below ; tail 

 black ; chest, belly, inside of legs, back edge of tarsus, and under side 

 of feet and anal disc white ; face bright bay, side-streak broad white. 



Gazella rufifrons, Gray, Ann. and Mag. Nat. Hist. — Kevel, male, 

 F. Cuvier, Mam. Lithog. t. 3. — Corine, F. Cuvier, Mam. Lithog. 

 t. . young £ . — A. Icevipes, Sundevall. — Gazella rufifrons, Gray, 

 K. M. 5. t. 4. 



Var. Nose blackish above (adult $ ) . 



Young ; pale yellowish, side-streak brownish. 



Inhabits W. Africa ; Senegal. Mus. Paris. Gambia (Mr. Whit- 

 field), called Seni. Brit. Mus. Sennaar (Sundevall). 



Buffon mentions a Corine as coming from Senegal, but he says it 

 is smaller than the Kevel, and Daubenton says that it has knee-tufts, 

 so that it cannot be this species. Indeed the Gazelle, Corine and 

 Kevel of Buffon are clearly all A. Boreas of this memoir. 



The Kevel figured by M. F. Cuvier well represents this species. 

 He says it was sent from Senegal, and probably it has not knee-tufts, 

 for they are not indicated in the figure or mentioned in the text ; for, 

 like other descriptions of this author, though it occupies more than 

 two pages, all the peculiarities of the species are left out. The Corine 

 of the same author, also from Senegal, well represents the young. 

 M. F. Cuvier says the Kevel and Corine and A. Boreas form one 

 species, but afterwards, under Kevel gris, he thinks they may be two. 



4. Procapra, Hodgson. 

 Horns strong, elongate, lyrate, black ; face tapering, nose simple ; 

 tear-bag none ; knee-tufts none ; tail very short : female hornless ; 

 teats two. Asia ; not gregarious.
