Typical locality Kilimanjaro district, B. E. Africa. 



Closely related to ignifer, but with the greater part of 

 the forehead black, and (typically) middle of head-crest black 

 and sides chestnut. Horns very thick at base, so that in old 

 individuals their length is barely two and a half times the 

 basal diameter. Feet slender, with hoofs of average length. 

 Skull roughened and inflated in frontal region, with median 

 palatal notch slightly deeper than lateral over ; basal length 

 5|- inches, maximum breadth 3 inches. 



The range extends from the Kilimanjaro district north- 

 wards to the south of Somaliland. Two races said to be 

 distinguished by the colour of the crest have been named: — 



Crest black in middle and chestnut on 



sides C. harveyi harveyi. 



Crest mahogany-coloured in the middle 



and rufous at sides C. h. kenice.
