GENUS Oreotragus

Author:A. Smith, 1834.
Citation:S. Afr. Quart. J., 2: 212.
Type Species:Antilope oreotragus Zimmermann, 1783.
Comments:Oreotragus distant from other Neotragine genera and associated with Cephalophus in molecular phylogenies, according to Hassanin and Douzery (1999b) and Matthee and Davis (2001). Not shown to share any synapomorphies with Cephalophus and perhaps should be restored to tribe Oreotragini.
