The Ruwenzori duiker (Cephalophus rubidus) is a stocky but small antelope found only in the Ruwenzori Mountains between Uganda and, probably, the Democratic Republic of Congo. They may be a subspecies of the Black-fronted Duiker or the Red-flanked Duiker. The Ruwenzori duiker weighs about 15 kg (33 lb) and has a shoulder height of about 45 cm (18 in). They have rufous coats, lighter on their underbellies and darker on their backs. Their short, prong-like horns are about 8 cm long. They are found in subalpine zones above 3,000 meters, where they eat herbs. They are diurnal.
