than in redunca ; their general axis rising above level of 

 frontal plane ; in good specimens the length ranges from 

 9i to 10 J inches and the girth from 5 J to G, witli a tip- 

 to-tip interval of from 5 to 11^ inches. 



Blaine, on account of the larger size of the skull and teeth, 

 regards this and the following races as specifically distinct 

 from the true redunca.

Typical locality Mau Plateau, British East Africa. 



Closely allied to the last, with which it agrees generally 

 in cranial and dental measurements, and also in colour ; black 

 markings on legs present. The chief distinction seems to be 

 in the horns, which are rather larger, and have the points 

 much turned inwards ; good specimens range from 10 to 

 13| inches in length, with a girth of from 4i to 7f , and a 

 tip-to-tip interval of from 4J to 9i inches. 



Thomas regarded this race as nearly allied to redunca 

 redunca, which he considered specifically distinct from 

 r. bohor. Blaine affiliates it to the latter. 



The range includes portions of Uganda adjacent to British 

 East Africa.
