 the fur of the withers is directed forwards for a considerable distance.

PERUVIAN GUEMAL (Mazama [Xenelaphus] antisiensis). 

 (Xenelap/ms, or Hippocamelus, antisiensis of some naturalists.) 



Together with the closely allied Chilian guemal (M. bisulca\ this 

 species constitutes a group characterised by the antlers forming a 

 single fork. There is no gland -tuft on the hind cannon-bone, the 

 short tail is rather bushy, and the hair coarse and brittle. 



Distribution. The high Andes, from Peru to Northern Chili.
