Cephalophus hemprichianus, Jent. N. L. M. ix. p. 172 (1887) (Mossamedes). 
Size largest of the genus. General colour greyish on the crown and along 
the centre of the back, pale rufous on the backs of the ears, sides, and limbs. 
Tuft on crown mixed with black. 
Skull apparently similar to that of the next species, except for its greater 
size, but as we have only seen a single imperfect example, it is possible that 
other differences will be found when more material is examined. Greatest 
breadth of skull (c.) 2°2 inches, muzzle to front of orbit 2:23, to back of 
orbit 3°4. 
Hab. Damaraland, and probably Southern Angola. 
In South-western Africa the Dik-diks are represented by a somewhat 
similar species of rather larger size, of which, however, we as yet know very

in the South-African Museum, Capetown, are the only authentic examples of 
this species yet received, though it is probable that specimens in the Lisbon 
and Leyden Museums may be likewise referable to it. 
In 1879 Sclater received from Mr. Roland Trimen, F.R.S., then Curator of 
the South-African Museum, Capetown, a female specimen of a Dik-dik which
