White-Bellied Duiker

Mammals

The white-bellied duiker, Cephalophorus leucogaster, is a duiker found in central Africa. Little is known about the ecology of the species, and only some information on habitat and diet is available. It ranges in Cameroon, the Central African Republic, the Republic of the Congo, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea and Gabon, while it is likely to have been extirpated in Uganda. Duikers are small antelopes of the subfamily Cephalophinae in the family Bovidae.
