V.—Note on Gazella Daviesii, Hinton, an Antelope from the Norwich Crag

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  01 May 2009

Extract

In 1906 I described a horn-core of a small antelope which had been obtained long ago from the Norwich Crag of Bramerton, and which is now in the collection of Mr. A. S. Kennard. This specimen formerly formed part of the Bayfield collection, and Mr. William Davies had determined it as a horn-core of Capra or Antelope. A comparison showed that it was referable to the genus Gazella, but that it differed from Gazella anglica, a species from the Norwich Crag described by Mr. E. T. Newton, as well as from all the other living and fossil Gazelles respecting which I could obtain information. I therefore ventured to found a new species, G. Daviesii, for the reception of Mr. Kennard's specimen.
