The
lowland nyala or simply
nyala(
Tragelaphus angasii)
[3] is a spiral-horned
antelope native to southern Africa. It is a species of the family
Bovidae and genus
Tragelaphus, previously placed in genus
Nyala. It was first
described in 1849 by
George French Angas. The body length is 135–195 cm (53–77 in), and it weighs 55–140 kg (121–309 lb). The coat is maroon or rufous brown in females and juveniles, but grows a dark brown or slate grey, often tinged with blue, in adult males. Females and young males have ten or more white stripes on their sides. Only males have horns, 60–83 cm (24–33 in) long and yellow-tipped. It exhibits the highest
sexual dimorphism among the spiral-horned antelopes. It is not to be confused with the endangered
mountain nyala living in the Bale region of Ethiopia
