REDUNCIX.E 241 



Described as being lighter-coloured than harnieri* with 

 the forehead bright rufous and more sharply contrasting 

 with the body-colour than in either hcmiieri or matschiei* 

 Size large. Horns more uniformly curved and longer than 

 in (L defassa, and thus closely approximating to those of 

 K. cUipsiprymnus. Fine horns measure from 31 to 36 J inches 

 in length, with a girth of from 8^ to 10 J, and a tip-to-tip 

 interval of from 18|- to 36 inches. 



The Semliki and Nyanza forms to which separate 

 names have been given by Matschie j are here regarded as 

 inseparable from this race,
