'''Antilopinae''' is a [[subfamily]] of [[Bovidae]]. The gazelles, blackbucks, springboks, gerenuks, dibatags and Central Asian gazelles are often referred to as "True Antelopes" and are usually the sole representatives of the Antilopinae. "True Antelopes" occur in much of Africa and Asia with the highest concentration of species occurring in [[East Africa]] in [[Sudan]], [[Eritrea]], [[Ethiopia]], [[Somalia]], [[Kenya]] and [[Tanzania]]. The saigas and Tibetan antelopes are related to "True Antelopes" (Antilopinae) and goats (Caprinae), but often placed in their own subfamily, Saiginae. These animals inhabit much of Central and Western Asia. The dwarf antelopes are sometimes placed in a separate [[subfamily]], Neotraginae, and live entirely in Sub-Saharan Africa.


The '''antilopines''' are [[even-toed ungulate]]s belonging to the [[subfamily]] '''Antilopinae''' of the family [[Bovidae]]. The members of tribe [[Antilopini]] are often referred to as true [[antelope]]s, and include the [[gazelle]]s, [[blackbuck]]s, [[springbok]]s, [[gerenuk]]s, [[dibatag]]s, and Central Asian gazelles. True antelopes occur in much of Africa and Asia, with the highest concentration of species occurring in [[East Africa]] in [[Sudan]], [[Eritrea]], [[Ethiopia]], [[Somalia]], [[Kenya]], and [[Tanzania]]. The [[saiga]] (tribe [[Saigini]]) inhabits Central and Western Asia, mostly in regions from the [[Tibetan Plateau]] and north of the [[Indian Subcontinent]]. The dwarf antelope species of tribe [[Neotragini]] live entirely in sub-Saharan Africa.

The antilopines are even-toed ungulates belonging to the subfamily Antilopinae of the family Bovidae. The members of tribe Antilopini are often referred to as true antelopes, and include the gazelles, blackbucks, springboks, gerenuks, dibatags, and Central Asian gazelles. True antelopes occur in much of Africa and Asia, with the highest concentration of species occurring in East Africa in Sudan, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Somalia, Kenya, and Tanzania. The saiga (tribe Saigini) inhabits Central and Western Asia, mostly in regions from the Tibetan Plateau and north of the Indian Subcontinent. The dwarf antelope species of tribe Neotragini live entirely in sub-Saharan Africa.
