Mr. Gray observes, " A fine pair has been at Knowsley some 

 years. Thinking them new, I described them as A. annulipes. 

 Mr. Ogilby has called it the Nagor, but it is scarcely the Nagor 

 of Buffon. An adult male noticed by Mr. Ogilby as the Kob is 

 now in the Museum of the Zoological Society ; its horns, like 

 the male at Knowsley, are much worn down. They whistle like a 

 stag. 



" Buffon (H. N. xii. 219. 267. t. 32. f. 1) figures a skull with 

 horns, brought from Senegal by Adanson, under the name of 

 Kob, which is also called the Petit Vache brune. Erxleben gave 

 this figure the name of A . Kob, and Pennant called it the Gam- 

 bian Antelope, Syn. i. 39. The figures somewhat resemble the 

 head of a half-grown male of this species, but the horns are 

 longer, and have more rings than the specimen in the British 

 Museum; but I am inclined to agree with Mr. Ogilby in be- 

 lieving that it was intended for this species. In the Jardin des 

 Plantes they called the Sing- Sing the Kob of Senegal; this may 

 be a mistake for the Koba. I may remark that the horns of the 

 Koba in the same plate of Buffon are represented with more 

 rings than are mentioned in the description.

 female specimen which were alive in Exeter Change, and figures
