they were killed. A very young fawn (perhaps hardly born), which 
was brought home from the Cape by M. Yerreaux, is darker, and the 
reddish tint extends over nearly the whole body. 
Thunberg described the South African species, but says that there 
is a specimen in the Stockholm Museum, brought by Afzelius from 
Sierra Leone, which agrees with his animal; so he evidently did not 
observe the difference between the two species.

Knowsley Menag. 11. t. 10.— C. Philantomba , Gray, Cat. Mamm. B. 
M. 163 (not H. Smith). 
Inhabits Fernando Po ( J. Thompson , Esq.). Brit. Mus. 
This species is coloured like the Guevei from W. Africa, but smaller, 
and have the soft fur and interspersed black hair of the Cape Guevei , 
C. monticola , but they are easily known by the black mark on the 
rump.

over the eyes and inside of ears pale brown ; chin, throat, chest, belly

Cephalophus punctulatus , Gray, Ann. and Mag. Nat. Hist. 1846 ; 
Knowsley Menag. 11. t. 11. f. 1. 
Inhabits Sierra Leone. Brit. Mus. A young specimen presented 
by Colonel Sabine, B.E. 
It is at once known from the other Gueveis by the fulvous colour 
which is produced by the yellow sub terminal rings of the hairs. 
Colonel H. Smith indicates a species under the name of C. Philan¬ 
tomha, but so indistinctly, that it is impossible to know for what it is 
intended. 
16. Cephalophus Whitfieldii. The White-footed Gue¬ 
vei. 
Yellowish ash; shoulders, outside of limbs and hinder parts of back 
rather darker ; ears and crown pale yellowish brown ; streak over the 
eyes, cheeks, throat, belly, inside of the limbs and ring round the feet 
above the hoof ashy white ; hair ashy grey ; of the back brown at the 
end, with a yellow tip. 
Cephalophus Whitfieldii , Gray, Knowsley Menag. 12. t. 11. f. 2. 
Inhabits Gambia {Mr. Whitfield ). Mus. Brit. Young. 
Smaller than the Grisled Guevei , and much paler and yellower.
