ginallj was described froin Angola. It is a bright-coloured animal. 

 The dark blaze is not black but brown, similar to the palest shade 

 of « warm sepia » (305.1), or still paler, somewhat similar to 

 « dark chocolaté brown » (342.1). It extends ail wa_y from the 

 muffle to the tuft through the « fawn » coloured (308.1) fore head. 

 The neck is « bnff » (309.1), the back somewhat richer « bufl » 

 (309.3-4), not much shaded by the warm sepia-brown tips to the 

 hairs. Thèse dark tips disappear on the tlanks which thus become 

 paler buff (309.1), but with a rather sharp line of démarcation 

 against the white lower parts. The throat is also white, and a white 

 spot is found, more or less defined, below and behind the ear. The 

 pasterns are warm sepia brown, or dark chocolaté brown, and the 

 streak on the fore-leg is présent, of the same shade or paler. 



The greatest length of a female skull is 176.5 mm., basai length 

 154.5 mm., upper molar séries 55 mm., preorbital length 95.5 mm. 

 This skull is a little larger than the raale skull from the same loca- 

 lity. The maie skull from Leopoldville is only little shorter with 

 a basai length of 153 mm., preorbital length 90.5 mm. and upper 

 molar séries 53 mm. 



Sylvicapra grimmia cf. flavescens Lorenz. 



Five spécimens from Katanga, two of which 1761, 1763) are 

 from the Kapiri plateau and one from the neighbourhood of 

 « Lac Murato ». Native name for the latter reported to be 

 « Kachia ». A young spécimen from Bukama (1015) is undoub- 

 tedly of the same race. 



In a gênerai way this race resembles the foregoing in being buff- 

 coloured. It is, however, at once distinguished on the blaze which 

 does not extend to the tuft, but ends in the interorbital région. 

 The forehead is usually paler, only in two of the spécimens the 

 palest shade of « fawn » (308.1), in the others buff (309.3-4). The 

 sprinkling with the dark brown tips of the hairs of the back is 

 somewhat more conspicuous than in splendidula^ but the neck is 

 uniform pale buff (309.1). The markings on the feet and legs are 

 well developed warm sepia to blackish. The white spot at the base
