SINGSING ANTELOPE (Cobus defassus). 



Habitat Africa. 

 [Dr. SCLATER on Capt. Speke's trophies, P.Z.S. 1864, p. 102.] 



THE general aspect of the head resembles Kobus ellipsiprymnus, but 

 the face is blacker, and the top of the head between the horns dark 

 rufous. " It does not possess the lunate mark on the rump of the 

 Waterbuck, and does not stand so high, but is rather more stoutly 

 built." (Note by Capt. Speke on above.) 



[Dr. JAMES MURIE, P.Z.S. 1867, p. 5.]
