Megalotragus

Megalotragus (from Greek mega (μέλα) 'great' and tragos (τράγος) 'goat') is a genus of very large African alcelaphines that lived during the Pliocene to early Holocene. Its skull resembled that of modern hartebeests, but it differed in having a larger body size and wildebeest-like proportions. Megalotragus includes some of the largest bovid species in the subfamily Alcelaphinae, reaching a shoulder height of 1.4 m (4.6 ft). The genus consists of three species of which Megalotragus priscus survived until the early Holocene 7.500 C14yBP.
