Bibilographic Information:
Black E. 1937. Fossil Antelopes of Olduvai. Scientific results of the Olduvai Expedition 1913:64.
Curatorial Notes:
Distal. Label/publication taxon ID: Gorgon taurinus semiticus. Reck Field No.: VII 539 (839?) VII 539 as written on label - the 5 is overwritten over another number. Perhaps this was an 8, as Schwarz lists VII 839 as one of the distal phalanges, but no VII 539. (number written on specimen itself is VII 539).
