Hair in winter rough and coarse, in summer much softer and 

 smoother. During both seasons the dirty white of the face and 

 cheeks is only relieved by the dark facial streak, which is short and 

 narrow, but denned by a sprinkling of rufous hairs ; the lateral and 

 pygal bands are very faintly indicated, the dark bands being more 

 rufous, the light band rather paler than the grey fawn-colour of the 

 upper parts of the body ; breast and belly white. Tail and ears 

 moderate in length, the former blackish rufous. Horns absent in the 

 female ; in the male long, annulated, and lyrate, the points project- 

 ing inwards. Height about 26". 



Hab. High plateau of Persia ; Northern Baloochistan ; Afghani- 

 stan (Blanf.). 



In the female being hornless, and in the slightly diminishedlength 

 of the ears and tail, this species stands intermediate between the 

 typical desert Gazelles and those inhabiting the high steppes of Cen- 

 tral Asia.

Hair in winter long and coarse. Anterior part of the face slightly 

 darker than the pale grizzled fawn-colour of the sides of the face, 

 neck, back, sides, and haunches ; facial and lateral markings want- 

 ing ; belly and anal disk, which surrounds the very short tail (the 

 root of which is white, the tip fawn-colour), dirty white. 



In summer all the parts which are grizzled fawn in winter are of 

 an " intense isabel yellow " {vid. Radde). Ears very short. Horns 

 short, weakly annulated, the curves as in the last species, but much 

 less boldly shown. Height about 30". 



Skull : anteorbital fossa very shallow ; nasals converge to a point 

 and are rather elongated. 



Hab. Mongolia. 



The best account we have of this Gazelle is that given by Radde
