 smaller size (height at shoulder, 46-49 inches), shorter and more 

 slender horns, and the somewhat brindled appearance of the coat, due 

 to patches of longer hairs on the otherwise short fur. General colour 

 a peculiar purple-brown, with the dark markings less defined and less 

 black than in the korrigum D. corrigum typicus. Height at shoulder 

 about 50 inches. Weight about 250 to 380 Ibs. 



Distribution. British East Africa from the Juba to the Sabuki River, 

 and thence to Uganda and Uniamwezi.
