36 MR. p. L. SCLATER ON TRAGELAPHTJS GRATTJS, [Feb. 6, 



and measures 42 inches in length from the chest to the rump. The 

 tail is llg inches in length; the ears 5^ inches. The markings, 

 although not so distinct, agree nearly with those of the specimens 

 living in Paris ; but the example is apparently not quite so old, and 

 the general colour is more rufous. The length of the horns, from 

 the base to the tip in a straight line, is about 19 inches. 



Head of Tragelaphus grains, from the mounted specimen in the 

 British Museum. 



With the additional evidence now obtained, I think there can be 

 no question of Tragelaphus gratus being an excellent species, distin- 

 guished from all other Antelopes of the same group, except Trag. 

 spekii, by its elongated toes, and, along with the latter species.
