Pennant figures the head and horns of this species under the 
name of Senegal Antelope, and erroneously refers to Buffon’s 
figures of the horns of the Koda as representing the species, which 
has occasioned some confusion; for the A. Senegalensis (Cuvier, 
Dict. Sci. Nat. 11. 235) is an abbreviation, and A. Koba (Erxle- 
ben, Syn. 293) is a translation, of Pennant’s description of this 
species. Pennant’s specimen is said to come from Senegal, but 
he describes the nuchal line and the knees as black, and the 
figure indicates the dark colour on the face of the Cape species. 
The Hartebeest has an extensive range; it is found everywhere 
in the fiat and wooded districts between the Cape of Good Hope 
and the Tropic of Capricorn. Its movements are ungraceful, and 
give a notion of great exertion, but when urged by danger it 
shows no want of either agility or endurance. The flesh is 
esteemed.—A. Smith.
