302 APPENDICES 



Buffalo {Bos caffer) : The Uganda buffalo is not 

 uncommon about the eastern foot-hills of Ruwenzori, 

 and in the province of Ankole, where * record ' speci- 

 mens have been obtained. We met with the Congo 

 buffalo (Bos nanus) in a great many places ; it is 

 especially numerous in the Semliki Valley, in the 

 Manyuema country, and near Sendwe on the Upper 

 Congo. 



Eland {Taurotragus oryx) is found in the province of 

 Ankole in Uganda. 



Roan Antelope [hippofragus equinus) occurs in the 

 Manyuema countr}^ in the Congo State. 



Lesser Koodoo {Strepsiceros imberbis) : We saw the 

 horns of a specimen of this antelope, which had been 

 found floating in the Luama River in the Manyuema 

 country. 



Puku {Cobtts vardoni) is widely distributed between 

 Tanganyika and the Congo. 



Topi, or Senegal hartebeeste {Damaliscus corrigum), is 

 found in the province of Ankole, in immense numbers 

 on the plains to the south of Lake Albert Edward, 

 and fairly numerously in the Manyuema country. 



Water-buck (Cobtts defassd) is found in many places 

 in Uganda, particularly on the plains about Lakes 

 Ruisamba and Albert Edward ; in the latter district 

 they bear horns of remarkable size. The measure- 

 ments of my 'record' specimen are : length of horns, 

 36f inches ; spread from tip to tip, 36 inches ; circum- 

 ference at the base, 9I inches. In the Congo State we 

 found water-buck at the south of Lake Albert Edward, 

 in the Semliki Valley, and at one or two places in the 

 Manyuema District. 



Uganda Kob {Cobus thomasi) occur commonly on 

 the plains about Lake Ruisamba and the Albert and 

 Albert Edward Nyanzas ; at the south of the last- 

 named lake they attain an unusual size.
