This species varies greatly in the intensity of the colours and in the 
extent of the black on the feet and nose. In one young specimen in 
the British Museum the black on the nose is quite deficient ; though 
it has the bright colouring of the breeding-season, and is bright bay 
on the crown. 
The specimen in the Museum of the London Missionary Society 
(No. 8 Blomfield Street, Moorfields, formerly in Austin Friars), 
Case 5, described by Colonel H. Smith under the name of 4. Platous, 
is the size and has the horns and ears of an adult C. Grimmia, but 
differs in being paler, and having no dark colour on the nose or feet ; 
but it is evidently much bleached. It has certainly no relation to 
the C. sylvicultriz, with which Colonel Smith was afterwards inclined 
to place it as a variety (Griff. A. K. Syn. v. 344). 
There are three species which have been called Antilope Grimmia:— 
1. The Capra sylvestris africana of N. Grimm, Misc. Cur. No- 
rimb. 1705, 131. t.13, the authority for Capra Grimmit, Ray, Syn. 80, 
and Linn. S. N. (ed. 10) 70. Moschus Grimmia, Linn. S. N. ed. 12, 
from the Cape, of a dull grey colour. Probably the Duyker. 
2. Le Grimme of Buffon, H. N. xii. 307. 329. t. 41. f. 2, 3, from 
a head sent from Senegal by Adanson ; the Antilope Grimmia of Des- 
marest, F. Cuvier, and H. Smith, &c.; the Cephalophus rujilatus. 
3. The 4. Grimmia of Pallas, with large ears and a black streak 
to the horns, like C. Campbellie, but is from Guinea. I know of no 
species common to the W. and S. coast of Africa, so that it is pro- 
bably yet to be distinguished. 
The “Fitomba’’ or “Philantomba”’ appears to be the generic name 
of all the W. African Cephalophi or Bush Antelopes. 
3. CerpHALOoPHUS CAMPBELLIZ. The BLAcK-FACED PHILAN- 
TOMBA. 
Grey and black grisled, beneath white ; cheeks, neck and chest yel- 
lowish ; forehead yellow, with a black streak on the nose widening on 
the forehead and ending in a tuft behind the horns ; feet and front of 
fore-legs reddish black ; fur soft ; hair grey, with black ring and tip ; 
ears elongate acute. 
Antilope Grimmia, Pallas, Spic. Zool. xii. 18. t. 1 21—C. Burchellii, 
var. (C. Campbellie), Gray, Cat. B. M. 162.—C. Campéellie, Gray, 
Ann. and Mag. Nat. Hist. 1846, 164; Knowsley Menag. 9. t. 2. f. 3. 
Inhabits S. Africa. Brit. Mus. 
This species is at once known from the Duyker by being much 
darker and distinctly grisled or dotted, and the under side being much 
whiter. 
We have an adult female of this species sent us as 4. mergens, var. 
Burchellii, by M. Sundevall (the other specimen of the same name 
being a true Duyker), and a young specimen which has been in the 
British Museum for several years, sent from Africa, under the generic 
name of Philantomba, by Mrs. Campbell.
