Discussion:
Oreotragus
distant from other Neotragine genera and associated with
Cephalophus
in molecular phylogenies, according to
Hassanin and Douzery (1999
b
)
and
Matthee and Davis (2001)
.
Not
shown to share any synapomorphies with
Cephalophus
and perhaps should be restored to tribe
Oreotragini
.
