movement, while the sperm, much reduced in size, is admirably- 
adapted for rapid and long journeys. 
In the highest forms these two conditions are most marked. 
Various stages of these modifications are met in the unicellular 
world, as already seen in Pandorina , Eudorina, and Volvox. 
In the case of Pandorina the conjugating cells are practically 
equal in size, in Eudorina an intermediate stage is witnessed, 
while in Volvox we have a marked differentiation both in size 
and mobility between the germ and the sperm. In the first two 
all the cells are vegetative, afterwards becoming reproductive ; 
in Volvox, however, we have one of the earliest indications of 
a definite separation, from the first, of somatic- or body- 
from reproductive- or germinal- cells. 
SOME NOTES ON THE GAME ANIMALS OF JUBALAND 
By I. N, Dracopoli 
Although Jubaland cannot boast of the quantity or variety 
of game found in other parts of the East African Protectorate, 
yet the study of those animals that are encountered within 
its borders cannot fail to interest the traveller, and this is 
especially the case with the race of Grant’s gazelle and the 
zebra, that inhabit the more open districts of the country lying 
between Kismayu and Birkau to the west of the sandhills, and 
Hunter’s antelope, which roams through the scrub-covered 
wilderness that stretches between the Tana and the Lak Dera. 
In the following notes I shall confine myself to a short descrip- 
tion of these three animals, specimens of which I obtained 
myself in Jubaland. 
Hunter’s antelope belong to the sub-family Bubalidinoe, 
and constitute part of a small group of ruminants known as 
4 Bastard Hartebeestes,’ to which also belong the Topi 
(Damaliscus corrigum) the bontebok (. D . pygargus), the blesbok 
(Z). albifrons), and the tsessebe (. D . lunatus). They are closely
