Kirk's Dik-dik. 



KIRK'S DIK-DIK (Madoqua kirki). 



This dik-dik belongs to a small group of species differing from the 

 one containing M. saltiana by the presence of three lobes to the last 

 tooth of the lower jaw, and likewise by the more decidedly trunk-like 

 character of the muzzle. Of the other members of the group, M. 

 damarensis differs by its superior size, and M. guentJieri by the still 

 greater development of the trunk. 



Distribution. — East Africa, from Southern Somaliland to Ugogo, most 



numerous on the coast.
