first is the name by which it is known near the junction of the 

 Nepoko and Aruwimi Rivers ; and the second is the name given to

 Aruwimi as far east as Fort Bode, and south of Fort Bode for at least 

 some 4 days." 



Mr. Sclater observed that the Antelope thus indicated probably 

 belongs to a new species of the Tragelaphine series.
