Races of African Ungulates. 35 



" Damcdiscus korrigum jonesi," Lydekker, is a strict syuo- 

 nym of D. koba tiang, as will be shown in a subsequent paper, 

 Mlien the validity of Damaliscus koba will also be discussed. 



Cepha/ophus dorsalis orientalis, subsp. n. 



Type locality. Koloka, near Angu, Welle River. 



Type. ? adult. Senckeuberg Museum, Frankfurt-a.-M. 

 Journal no. 1195. Original no. 245. Collected by Dr. H. 

 Schubotz in June 1911. 



Externally not distinguishable from the other forms of 

 C. dorsalis. Skull much larger than in any of them. Ros- 

 trum and nasals very long. Floor of orbit not so flat as in 

 the western forms, and orbital portion of jugal scarcely 

 expanded. 



A female skull and head-skin from Bambili, Welle River, 

 in the British Museum (no. 7. 7. 8. 224'), brought home by 

 the Alexander-Gosling Expedition, shows the same characters, 

 and may be regarded as paratype. 



Dimensions of type skull. Basal length 178 mm.; upper 

 length 203 ; zygomatic width 8C)"-1< ; greatest orbital width 

 87'8 ; length of nasals 82'9; orbit to gnathion 10i"5 ; length 

 of upper tooth-row (alv.) 589. 



There is a gradual increase in size and facial length in the 

 local races of C. dorsalis. The West-Coast forms like C. d. 

 dorsalis are small and have a short rostrum, the length 

 from orbit to gnathion being generally less than the zygo- 

 matic width ; in C. d. castaneus from South Nigeria and the 

 Western Cameroons the length of the rostrum is already 

 greater than the zygomatic width ; in the races of the Congo 

 forest, as typified by orientalis, the skull has the normal 

 shape of a CephalojjJius, the relation between facial length 

 and zygomatic width being not at all so unusual as it is in 

 the short-headed typical form. 



Cephalophus carulus * schultzei, subsp. n. 



Type locality. Yukaduma, north of River Bumba, South 

 Cameroons. 



'Type. ? ad. Senckenberg Museum, Fraukfurt-a.-M. 

 Journal uos. 442 (skin), 455 (skull). Original no. 3087. 

 Collected by Dr. A. Schultze in March 1911. 



Distinguished from C. c. bakeri, Rothschild ct Neuville, 



* This specific name replaces monticola, which, as will be shown in a 

 subsequent paper, is a clear s^-nonvm of Otirebia onrehi.
