MAMMALIA. 267 



Harkhallat, north of Antalo, at an elevation of about 

 7,000 feet above tbe sea. It inhabits bushy ground or 

 high grass. 



I shot a buck, but omitted to take the complete dimen- 

 sions ; it was 1 ft. 10^ in. high at the shoulder, and the 

 length of the body measured in a straight line from the 

 shoulder to the rump was 26 inches. The mammge are 

 four in number, the suborbital and inguinal glands well 

 developed, and it has the peculiar bare spot at the base 

 of each ear characteristic of this genus of Antelopes.
