Description

- Gazella sp., ‘Form V’; this species is mostly illustrated by a hornless skull, whose dental dimensions are also very simi- lar to those of G. capricornis, a species whose females are said by KOSTOPOULOS (2009b) to be hornless, and it is more parsimonious to also identify ‘Form V’ with G. capricornis. - Gazella sp., represented by a single horn-core said to be very large, but whose measurements (c. 28 × 25.4 according to KÖHLER 1987, fig. 84) would also fit G. capricornis (see, e.g., KOSTOPOULOS 2009b, fig.6).
