No subspecies are recognized. The two former subspecies, the white-legged duiker Cephalophus crusalbum and the Brooke's duiker Cephalophus brookei, are considered as distinct species since 2011. Ogilby's duikers weigh up to 20 kg (44 lb) and have a shoulder height of up to 56 cm (22 in). They vary in color from chestnut to mahogany to deep brown, and have massive hindquarters typical of duikers. |
