MR. R. LYDEKKER ON THE 



[Feb. 2, 



Nearly allied to the last race, from which it is easily distin- 

 guishable by the circumstance that in the fore-limb from just 

 above the line of the abdomen, and on the hind-limb halfway up 

 the thigh, the spots suddenly break up into a series of very small 

 spots of irregular shape, similar spots occurring on the underparts 

 and inner side of limbs. Horns as in the Nubian Giraffe. 



Text-fig. 24. 



Male Kordofan Giraft'e. (From Jardine.) 

 The frontal horn is not shown. 



Jardine's type specimen (an adult bull), of which the figure is 

 reproduced in the accompanying text-fig. 24, and the young male 

 and female now in the Society's Gardens* agree in the above- 

 mentioned feature.
