Skull K.— Til tliL' 'rcrNiRTi'ii Museum (Muse'e du Congo), Belgium; the skull of a 



complete skeleton, No. 489. Said to l)e female, adult. Locality : Ituri Forest. This 



skull is figured by C. I. Forsyth Major, ' Proc Zool. Soc.,' 1902, vol. ii, p. :54'J, text-fig. 



63, and by J. Fi'ai|iout, ' Aiiuales du Alusee du Congo, Zool.,' ser. 2, vol. i, " Okapia," 1907, 



plates V and vii. The ligure of Skull K in Plate 16 is from Forsyth Major's figure. 



Although obtained at the same time as skin No. 488, now at Rome (see Plato 33, fig. 1), 



the skeleton No. 489 is apparently frtun a different animal (see Fraipont, p. II, paragi'. 5). 



Skull L.— In the British Museum; Reg. No., 7.12.26.1 ; a cast of a skull in the 



Tervueren Museum (Musee du ('ongo), Belgium; the skull of a complete skeleton, 



No. 480. Said to be male, adult. Locality : Mundalah, on the road from ]\Iawaml)i to 



Beni. The skull is figured by C. I. Forsyth Major, ' Proc. Zool. Soc.,' 1902, vol. ii, 



p. 73, text-fig. 7, and p. 343, text-fig. 64 ; by E. Ray Lankester, ' Trans. Zool. Soc.,' 



vol. xvi, 1902, p. 304, text-fig. 15; and by J. Fraipont, ' Annales du Musee du Congo, 



Zool.,' ser. 2, vol. i, " Okapia," 1907, jjlates iii, iv, and vi, and text-fig. 46 on page 40 his. 



A figure of the extremity of the ossicone is given by E. Ray Lankester, ' Proc. Zool. 



Soc.,' 1907, p. 126, text-fig. 49. Skull L is the type of Oka [tin Uehrechfsi, Major. The 



distinctive characters of the species are given in ' La Belgique Coloniale,' Ann. viii. 



No. 4-5, November 9th, 1902, p. 633 ; but the figure of the skull in the ' Proc. Zool. Soc.,' 



1902, vol. ii, p. 73, illustrating remarks made by Dr. Forsyth Major at the Society's 



meeting on June 3rd, lil02, and published in October, 1902, bears the name Okapin 



lielrechtsi, Maj., and stands as the basis of the species. The skin mentioned l)y Dr. 



Forsj'tli Major on the same occasion is now mounted in the Stockholm Museum. The 



right fore and hind legs of this are shown in Plate 39, fig. 1. 



Skull M. — In the Zoological Museum of the University of Rome. Sex doubtful, 

 adult. Locality : Ituri Forest. The skull of a complete skeleton described and figured 

 by A. Carruccio, 'Boll. Soc. Zool. Ital.,' ser. 2, vol. iv, 1903, pp. 1—20 and 101—116, 

 and vol. vi, 190-5, pp. 177 — 190. The skeleton is apparently not that of the same animal 

 as the skin mounted at Rome, of which the legs are figured in Plate 33, fig. 1. Accord- 

 ing to J. Fraipont ('Annales du Musoe dn Congo, Zool.,' ser. 2, vol. i, "Okapia," 1907, 

 ]). 14, paragr. 5 and 6) the skin given to the King of Italy is No. 488 and the skeleton 

 No. 500. The figure of Skull M in Plate 16 is fi'om a photograph supplied by the 

 LFniversity of Rome.

Skull N. — In the ]\Iadrid ^luseum; the skull of a complete skeleton, apparently the 

 skeleton corresponding with the skin No. 536 mounted in the Tervueren Museum, of 

 which the legs are figured in Plate 37, fig. 2. See J. Fraipont, 'Annates du Musee du 

 Congo, Zool.,' ser. 2, vol. i, " Okapia," 1907, p. 14, parag. 10. Skull N is without horns, 

 and clearly does not correspond with the horned skin mounted in the Madrid Museum 

 (skin No. 705a of J. Fraipont, p. 14, fig. 7), of which the legs are figured in Plate 34, fig.
