III. Genus ANTIDORCAS. 



Antidorcas, Sundevall, K. Svcnsl-a Vet.-AT:. Handl. 1845, p. 271, 

 1847 ; Thomas and Sclater, Book of Antelopes, vol. iii, p. 53, 

 1897 ; 0. Neumann, Sitzher. Ges. nat. Freunde, 1906, p. 237 ; 

 PococJc, Proc. Zool. Soc. 1910, pp. 893 and 897. 



Distinguished from Gazella by the presence of a large 

 evertible dorsal gland, lined with long white erectile hairs, 

 extending from middle of l^ack to rump, the absence of 

 inguinal glands, and the presence of only two pairs of lower 

 premolars ; the number of upper premolars being either 

 three or two. Neumann considers the genus, which is repre- 

 sented by a single South African species, nearly allied to 

 the large gazelles of the subgenus Nanger, and the horns — 

 present in both sexes — show a striking similarity to those 

 of Gazella soemmcrringi, although shorter.
