250 CATALOGUE OF UNGULATES 



rufous ; horns somewhat intermediate in character between 

 those of Icchc and maria, showing a more decided sigmoid 

 flexure than in the former. Good horns measure from 

 20 to 24^ inches in length, with a girth of from 5 J to 7, and 

 a tip-to-tip interval of from llj to 18 J inches. 



Kohus rohcrtsi is stated to occur in the same area as the 

 typical smithcmani, and according to Eothschild, Icchc is 

 likewise found in the same district, but this is denied by 

 Letcher, who mentions that while black lechwes swarm in 

 the swamps round Lake Tumbwa, North-east Ehodesia, he 

 never observed a single example of the true lechwe. Black 

 lechwes, he observes, appear to be restricted " to the immense 

 marshes which surround Lakes -Bangweolo and Mweru and 

 Tumbwa in North-eastern Ehodesia, and in some parts of the 

 Lukanga Swamp in North-western Ehodesia." A specimen 

 entered below indicates, however, the extension of the range 

 into Congo territory.
