■A 



(c) Rhynchotragus guenlheri wronghtoni, .sul)<[>. n. 



Very aicnilar in size to A*, gaentheri, but maikeJIy different 

 in colonring. 



General colour dark yellowish f^rizzle, which fades but 

 slii^iitly as it extends on to shoulders, sides, and haunehe-i. 

 The grizzling ends abruptly underneath, where the chest and 

 abdomen are pure white, unlike R. gueutheri, in which the 

 yellow grizzling fades sofnt^what gradually into the pale 

 pinkish buff of the chest and abdomen. The crest is rather 

 darker, as also are the muzzle and the legs, than in R. guen- 

 t/ieri, while the cars are longer and broader than in any other 

 except li. cavcndi.s/ii. At lirst sight it looks not unlike 

 R. cavendishiy but the skull-measurements soon separate the 

 two. 



For skull-measurements vide Table. 



Hub. Foot-hills of Mt. Abul Ka=sim, Wabi River, Galla- 

 land, Abyssinia, within 20 miles west of iSheikli Hussein. 

 Altitude 3500 feet. 



Tyi^e. Adult male. Shot Oct. 21:st, 1908. B.M. no. 

 9. 6. 1. 39. 



For this subspecies I propose the name Rhynchotragus 

 gueutheri loroughtoni, in honour of my friend Mr. R. 0. 

 Wrouirhton.
