AND STREPSICEROS IMBERBIS. 221 



Str. kudu has been met with from Abyssinia to the 

 Cape Colony , where it is still fairly abundant in the eastern 

 province (see Bryden's Kloof and Karroo, 1889, p. 292); 

 kudu and imberbis (according to Dr. Noack , der Zoologische 

 Garten, 1886, p. 42) leben nebeneinander in den Gebir- 

 gen der Somalihalbinsel auf trocknem Pelsboden ; Josef 

 Menges (Petermann's Mittheilungen , 1884, p. 408) reports 

 »die kleine Kudu Antilope (Aderio) des Somalilandes ist 

 im ganzen Gebirge noch zahlreicher als die grosse Art." 

 From Somali-land the imberbis has been found southward 

 to till the Juba River, as we know from a letter written 

 to Dr. Sclater by Mr. F. Holmwood , Consul at Zanzibar 

 (P. Z. S. L. 1884, p. 48) with the following note: »I have 

 seen the dwarf-koodoo in the neighbourhood of the Juba 

 River , which is exactly under the Equator." 



In »Zoologischer Jahrbücher, 1887, p. 210" we find a 

 very strange statement. Dr. Th. Noack relates: » Streps, 

 imberbis kommt nach einem vom Prinzen Samson Dido 

 nach Hambu rg gebrachten Fell eines Pullus audi in West- 

 Afrika vor."
