There is certainly no excuse for considering this very distinct oribi 
a subspecies of montana. Both Ourebia kenyxe and O. haggardi are, 
so far as known, entirely isolated from other forms; and while I have 
not seen skins of kenyx the coloration of haggardi is so different from 
that of the races of montana that its full specific status can not be 
questioned. The subspecies of montana are reddish while haggard: is 
a decidedly drab or grayish animal. Both kenyx and haggardi have 
black tails, and these two forms are no doubt closely related.

The East African steinbok has a wide distribution without geo- 
graphical variation of consequence. No characters have been noted 
in an excellent series of specimens collected over the country from 
the Laikipia Plateau to the border of German East Africa by which 
more than one form could be recognized. No specimens from the 
type region in central German East Africa are at hand for compari- 
son; neither are specimens available from the Kilimanjaro region, 
the type-locality of an additional race described by Doctor Lénn- 
berg; but this form is considered identical with the wide ranging 
Raphicerus campestris neumanni by Roosevelt and Heller.
