SkuU in B. M. is like that of Grimmia niciilans, but cheek-cavity 

 rather diiFerent. 



Peters's Antilope ocularis (t. 27) very well repesents the male 

 specimen in the British Museum ; and the horns of the male are 

 like those on the skull at t. 41. f. 1, and t. 42. f. 1, though we have 

 not a skull of the male to compare with it ; but with respect to the 

 intermaxillary bones and the cheek-cavity it is more like the skull of 

 G. Burcheim. 



The figure of the female Antilope altifrons given by Dr. Peters 

 exactly represents our female from Natal, and the skull (t. 28. f. 2) 

 of the female agrees well with the skull of the animal in the British 

 Museum; but the skuU figured as the male of this species (t. 28. f. 1) 

 is very different from that of our male animal, and, from the 

 apparent decumbent position and the great narrowness of the nose, 

 it is somewhat more like the skull I described as C. longifrons than 

 like that of the true Grimmia.
