III. MADOQUA PIACENTINII. 



Madoqua piacentinii, Drake-Brocltman, Proc. Zool. Soc. 1911, 

 p. 981, pi. Ivi, fig. 1. 



Typical locality Ghagaburis, near Obbia, Italian Somali- 

 land. 



Similar in size to M. swaynei, but with the grey grizzling 

 of the back fine and distinct, without a buff suffusion. " The 

 neck is fairly grizzled all round, the pale throat and buft' 

 chin-patches being completely cut off from the pinkish buff 

 of the chest. Apart from the fine grey grizzling, the most 

 distinctive patches are about the head. There is a bright 

 rufous diamond-shaped nose-patch, which stands out con- 

 spicuously on the grizzled head, while the terminal pavt of 

 the long hairs of the crest is of dull creamy buff. The hairs 

 of the crest, however, vary so much [in colour] in dik-diks, 

 that little importance can be attached to this feature " 

 (Drake-Brockman).
