Pallas and Afzelius’s account of this species is derived from Buf- 
fon’s description ; both he and Adanson (Hist. Nat. xii. 326) say that 
it is “all pale red,” and Buffon further observes that it has not the 
white on the belly of the Gazelles. This does not agree with our ani¬ 
mal, which is white in several parts, but certainly not so white as the 
Gazelle, and has black on the legs; but as yet no other animal has 
been brought from West Africa, which better agrees with their account 
or figure. 
AI. Sundevall considers specimens of the Nagor of Senegal and the 
Bohor of Abyssinia, in the Frankfort Aluseum, as distinct, the former 
having the hair of the back whorled, the fore-leg with a dark stripe, 
and the latter having the hair not whorled and the legs pale. Our 
specimens, from Gambia, have the hair not whorled, and more or less 
distinct streaks on the fore-legs; hence I am inclined to believe tbe 
Nagor and the Bohor to be alike. Sundevall’s animal may be the 
Kob, but that has only one whorl on each end of the back, a nearly 
cervine muffle, and tbe end of the tail black. 
When in Frankfort, I observed that the male Antilope Bohor , from 
Abyssinia, was rather larger than the male of “A. redunca ,” from 
Senegal, in the same collection, and much brighter, and the horns 
more slender; the female was darker and browner than the male; 
both sexes have more black on the carpus and tarsus than in the spe¬ 
cimen of A. redunca in the same museum. 
Colonel Hamilton Smith formed a genus for two pairs of horns on 
part of the frontal bones in the College of Surgeons belonging to this 
group of Antelopes, which he called Raphicerus acuticornis and R. 
subulata (Griffith, A. K. t. 181. f. 2, 1). The figures are not suffi¬ 
cient to identify the species, and we now know that the horns of the 
same species differ greatly in individuals of the same species, and 
during the growth of the same specimen. R. acuticornis may be the 
horns of the Buy her Boc, Ceph. Grimmia ? 
2. The Cervine Antelopes have an elongated tail, cylindrical at 
the base, and with long hair at the end, often forming a compressed 
ridge; the body heavy and the limbs strong. They are of a large 
size.
