Besides Blyth’s frontlets already mentioned, there are a pair of horns of the Bubal in the British Museum obtained by Mr. E. Bower on the Lower Niger in 1892, and several other specimens of horns without exact localities. Sclater has also examined, casually, a mounted specimen in the Senckenbergian Museum at Frankfort-a/M., labelled _Bubalis mauritanica_, which is probably of this species. According to his notes it is “nearly uniform brown; forehead ferruginous; black round the feet.” _May, 1894._ 3. THE TORA. BUBALIS TORA (GRAY). _Buselaphus bubalis_, =Heugl.= Ant. u. Büff. N.O.-Afr.

VERNACULAR NAMES:--_Tora_ in Amhar, Abyssinia; _Tori_ in Tigre; _Guragua_ or _Quaraqua_ in Belen; _Tétel_ of Arabs in Sennaar (_Heuglin_). Size large, height at withers about 48 inches; hairs of face directed as in _B. buselaphus_. Colour uniform pale fulvous, decidedly paler than in other species, and, with the exception of the usual black chin and tail-tuft, entirely without black markings. Lower part of rump behind decidedly lighter than the dorsal surface. Skull slenderer and more lightly built than usual; frontal narrow; its elongation medium. Basal length 15·7 inches, greatest breadth 5·3, muzzle to orbit 12·5, facial length 16·5, breadth of forehead 3·4. Horns shaped somewhat like an inverted bracket, a comparison that is, however, better borne out by the two following species, as in the Tora the diverging parts of the two horns start up at a slight angle with each other, instead of being in the same straight line. The horns themselves are unusually slender, and attain a length of about 19 inches. _Hab._ Upper Nubia, Northern Abyssinia, and Kordofan.
