GENUS Cephalophus

Author:C. H. Smith, 1827.
Citation:In Griffith et al., Animal Kingdom, 5: 344.
Type Species:Antilope silvicultrix Afzelius, 1815.
Comments:Van Gelder (1977b) included Sylvicapra but recent authors have not followed this arrangement (Meester et al. 1986; Swanepoel et al. 1980:188). Jansen van Vuuren and Robinson (2001) together with Grubb and Groves (2002) categorized species groups as follows: C. ogilbyi or Cephalophorus group (includes three subgroups: [i] adersi, [ii] leucogaster, natalensis, nigrifrons, rufilatus, [iii] brookei, callipygus, niger, ogilbyi, weynsi); C. silvicultor or nominate Cephalophus group (includes also badius, jentinki, and spadix); and C. zebra or Cephalophula group (monotypic).
