Head of Addax. 
The ADDAX (Addax nasomaculatus). 
Kubbéji, Arabic. 
This antelope is another member of the oryx group, but is referred 
to a genus apart, of which it is the sole representative. Its most 
distinctive features are the spirally twisted and closely ringed horns 
(which recall those of the lesser kudu). The general colour in summer 
is sandy above and whitish below, with a brown patch on the forehead. 
In winter, at any rate in the case of the typical Tunisian race, the coat 
is grey and a heavy mass of long brown hair developed on the neck, 
shoulders, and forehead, although a streak across the face below the 
eyes, the lips, and a spot on the outer surface of each ear are white. 
Hoofs very wide and shallow, almost like those of the reindeer. 
Height at shoulder about 3 feet 6 inches.
