three animals are exactly in the same state as other 
three of the same group, which we shall next no- 
tice. There is an uncertainty whether they are 
distinct or only local varieties, or races of the same, 
and until authentic specimens of each from the dif- 
ferent countries can be procured and compared, 
they will remain so. The other three which we al- 
luded to, may be noticed under the M’horr Antelope 
of Mr Rennet, the Nanguer of F. Cuvier and Ruppel, 
and the Addra. These have been brought from va- 
rious districts of Africa, and are closely allied in 
form and colour. Mr Rennet thus describes the Ga- 
zella M’horr;— “ The form of the M’horr is light and 
elegant; its neck is long and slender; its tail of mo- 
•lerate length ; its limbs extremely slender and deli- 
cate, and its hoofs short, pointed, and form a rather 
acute angle at their anterior margin. The head tapers 
uniformly with a face moderately prolonged, suborbi- 
tal sinus of small extent, and its naked muzzle limit- 
ed to a narrow border round the nostrils, which is 
prolonged in a middle line as far as the margin of the 
upper lip. The horns are black, imbedded at their 
base in long hairs, and marked in this individual with 
eight complete, rather distinct, well defined rings, 
and one or two incomplete ones, which occupy about 
two-thirds of their entire length, the remainder to- 
wards the points being perfectly smooth and shin- 
ing.* 
The coioar of the upper parts is a deep fulvous or
