in the Menagerie. Of this it can only be said that, like most of the smaller 
Antelopes (if we except the Gazelles), it was shy and inoffensive in its 
disposition. 
The existence of C. nigrifrons in the Cameroons has been recorded by 
Peters, who published in 1876 an account of the collection of Mammals made 
by Dr. Reinhold Buchholz in this and other localities in Western Africa. 
Buchholz, when at the Cameroons, obtained a specimen of the Black-fronted 
Duiker from the natives who had captured it alive when swimming across a 
river. He remarks on the prominent appearance of the inguinal glands, and 
says that the horns are very short and conical, and almost covered by the 
frontal hairs. The native name of these Cephalophi in the Cameroons is said 
to be “ Ngolo.” : 
Our figure of this Bush-Duiker (Plate XVIII. fig. 1) was prepared by 
Mr. Smit under the direction of the late Sir Victor Brooke. It was probably 
taken from the specimen in the British Museum, but of this we are not 
quite sure.
