Antidorcas marsupialishttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Springbok_Antelope
The scientific name for a springbok is Antidorcas marsupialis.
It isn't. A springbok is a member of the antelope family, and thus is a placental mammal, not a marsupialAlthough Springboks have the scientific name Antidorcas marsupialias, this in no way indicates they are in an order of marsupials (Superorder or Supercohort Marsupialia). The scientific name of "marsupialis" comes from the Latin "marsupium", meaning "pocket", but the springbok does not have a marsupium. The name came aout because this animal has a pocket-like flap of skin extending from about halfway down the back, to the tail.
The springbok is a small African deer. Springbok is a 2-part name: from Afrikaans, meaning to spring or leap up; plus Middle Dutch bok or male deer.
