and like in the other species the margins, with exception 

 of the top of the ears, are dark brown colored. Length 

 about 11 cm. 



The anterior hoofs are of the short-type, more like tra- 

 gulus-hoo{s, length 2.3 cm , crown 2 cm. 



Besides the skull of the above described adult specimen, 

 we have another female-skull from v. Horstock's collec- 

 tions, which I bring without any hesitation under this 

 heading: it is a somewhat younger skull as the upper 

 premolars and the third lower premolar are just making 

 their appearance. 



The skull of the above described specimen has the nasal 

 bones much more elongated than in any other Pediotragus- 

 species, they measure no less than 52 mm., and in the 

 younger skull 49 mm. Both skulls have the upper surface 

 feebly roughened and the, coronoid process of mandible is 

 very developed.

 female specimen :

H. Smith says that the horns are 8.5 inches that is 

 8.8 cm. long. I never saw a male specimen, so that I 

 cannot say anything concerning the latter measure, but it 

 seems, taken all things together, that P. rufescens is a spe- 

 cies intermediate between Horstockii and 



Pediotragus Kelleni, nova species. 



We procured from Mr. C. E. v. d. Kellen's collections 

 the skull of a very adult male together with the skull of a 

 nearly fullgrown (the hindmost upper molar is just appearing) 

 female, both from Cahama, Kakulovar-river, a northern
