by the depressed frontals, with large supraorbital pits, 

 but differs from the former by the absence of a protu- 

 berance in the lachrymal, and the position of the notch in 

 the rim of the orbit. It closely resembles a young male 

 of Strepsiceros Tcudu in the form of the frontals, the supra- 

 orbital pits, the wide interval between the horn-cores, the 

 characteristic straight profile, and the general structure of 

 the cheek-teeth. The horn-cores are, however, much 

 smaller, in which respect Strepsiceros imberbis makes a 

 nearer approach to the fossil. The molar teeth have a 

 distinct inner accessory column. When mature, the fossil 

 species was probably nearly as large as the Kudu ; the 

 small size of the horn-cores is a character which might be 

 expected to occur in a primitive form.
