‘‘The latter name is that by which the Wawemba call C. vardoni—not 
‘Inswala’ as Mr. Sharpe has stated in the account he wrote of his journey 
to Mweru; he was no doubt misled by his Watonga porters from Lake 
Nyasa, who gave him what is the Manganga name for the ‘ Impala,’ which 
they confused with C. vardoni, never having seen that animal before. 
“Tt is curious how very accurate Livingstone’s information proves to be, 
even on such small points as these; he, though not a sportsman or one who 
cared much for natural history, records in his last journals the Wawemba 
name for C. vardoni as ‘Sebula’—which of course might be a mistake in 
the printing for ‘Seyula,’ the name by which the Wawemba call this animal 
to the present day. 
“Tt will bear me out in my statement that this Cobus is considerably smaller 
than C. vardoni, when I say that two of the Wasenga carried the animal, 
turn and turn about, for some three miles, when they were relieved by 
other men sent out from camp. 
“‘T should estimate its weight at, roughly, 90 lbs., possibly more. It is an 
adult specimen; for we found in her a foetus (3), to which she would have 
given birth in another week or 10 days. 
“« Her height at the withers, as she lay dead, measured 304 inches.” 
Mr. Crawshay’s typical specimen (now by his kindness deposited in the 
British Museum) being the only example yet obtained of this species, we 
have nothing more to say about it, except to express our regret that it 
arrived too late to be figured, or to be included in the synopsis of the 
species of Cobus given above (p. 95).
