 by transverse ridges as in Syncerus coffer caffer. The horns are 

 also said to average a little longer.

 his hunting trip to the Northern Guaso Nyiro in 1912 ; the best 

 head (No. 19.7.15.43) measures as follows: greatest width 

 outside 40 ; greatest width inside 35 ; width across palm on face of 

 horn 12 ; spread from tip to tip 26 1. 



Typical locality, Ankoli, South- West Uganda ; range from 

 Northern Uganda southwards to Tanganyika Territory, extending 

 as far east as the northern Gruaso Nyiro Valley and along the Tana 

 River to the coast, and as far west as Mt. Kuwenzori and Lake
