Flab. Northern half of Somaliland. 
This, the ordinary “ Dik-Dik” of Northern Somaliland, seems to 
be very common throughout its range. Capt. Swayne tells me that 
during every day’s march they are constantly being put up and shot, 
exactly like the common European hare, the habits of which they 
closely imitate. 
Although undoubtedly very closely allied to the Abyssinian species, 
its differences, both in size and colour, appear to be so marked and so 
constant that I no longer feel justified in assigning it to that form. 
The name of JZ. saltzana should therefore be entirely struck out of the 
list of the Somali fauna. 
Lastly, we have to deal with a species which, found, like JZ. phzllzpsz, 
near Berbera, is there well known as distinct both to sportsmen and 
natives, and has a different local name. I propose to name it after the 
euthusiastic naturalist and sportsman who first drew my attention to its 
distinctness, and whose notes on it have been already published in 
the “ Proceedings.” 
MADOQUA SWAYNE], sp. n. 
Colour approximately as in J/. saltiana, size less than in JZ. 
phillipst, and therefore far less than in J/. saltzana. Colour of back 
gray, with a strong fulvous suffusion (“ isabella” of Ridgway seems the 
nearest, but is not yellowish enough). Limbs rufous, and sides faintly 
so, but very different from the strong well-defined rufous of J/. phzllipsz. 
Of this species the Museum has three skins, brought home by 
Capt. Swayne from Berbera, and of these No. 94.2.21.15 is selected as 
the type. 
The measurements are as follows :—Head and body (c) 500 mm., 
hind foot without hoofs 149, length of hoofs 22. 
Besides the skins, one skull of Capt. Swayne’s (94.2.21.20) and 
another one (85.11.16.3), collected at Girbatir, North Somali, by Herr 
Menges, are referred provisionally to this species, and the measurements 
of the former given in the table on p. 326. 
Capt. Swayne tells me that the native name of JZ. swaynez is 
“Guyu,” of AZ. phillipsz “ Gol-ass,” and of AZ. guenther? “ Gussuli.” 
The following rough synopsis of the species of J/adogua will help 
to summarise the results arrived at :— 
A. Last lower molar without a third lobe ; upper line of premaxillze slanting, 
scarcely curved. Proboscis less developed.
