horn is in the form of a low boss, not much taller than in G. c. wardi, 

 but extended downwards in the form of a number of minor elevations. 

 On the forehead, especially the median horn, the hair jjie 



is dark iron-grey, quite unlike that of any other giraffe, Kilimanjaro 

 and spotting of the rest of the front of the face is Giraffe. 

 also greyish. This grey area is separated from the chestnut-spotted 

 region by a broad white band passing through the line of the eye. 

 Another peculiarity is the presence of faint spotting on the hair 

 covering the main horns. The spots at the back of the head are like- 

 wise unusually small. In a presumably older bull shot by Sir E. G. 

 Loder the grey areas on the head are nearly black. In other giraffes 

 they are rufous, brown, or fawn. 



For the wart-hogs of Natal and the Kilimanjaro district Dr. 

 Lonnberg {op. cit. p. 55) has proposed the respective names of 

 PhacocJiccrus (BtJiiopicus sundevalli and P. (B. masaicus. In 

 both, one pair of upper and either two or three pairs of ^ ^^ u*"" 

 lower incisor teeth are retained ; and by this and their 

 longer skulls (which also show certain structural differences) they are 

 distinguished from the typical P. ceihiopiais. The Kilimanjaro wart- 

 hog differs from its Natal cousin by the much greater width of the 

 frontal region of the skull. 



On the evidence of two female specimens, the one with yellowish 

 or rufous brown, and the other with greyish hair, Dr. Lonnberg 

 {op. cit. p. 22) considers himself justified in regarding the fiie 



Kilimanjaro lion as a distinct race, for which the name Kilimanjaro 

 Felis lea sabakiejisis is proposed. The grounds for this Lion. 

 distinction are certain differences in the proportions of the skull and 

 the relations of their constituent bones.
