Shungura Members G, H, J, Κ and L, and the Kalam Outcrop, have yielded teeth and some postcranial elements assignable to Equus oldowayensis Hopwood, 1937. Member G (earliest Early Pleistocene) has yielded a sample of 21 upper and nine lower teeth and two complete and one partial metapodials. Member Κ (middle to late Early Pleistocene) has yielded nine upper and four lower teeth. The other members have yielded smaller samples. Positive identification of the species from Members G, K, and the Kalam Outcrop are based on series of associated teeth derived from single individuals. The recognition of E. oldowayensis from Shungura Members G-L corresponds to its known temporal range through Bed I at Olduvai Gorge and its existence in East Africa throughout the... |

The fossil remains of rodents described in the present paper are from various localities. The large extinct musk rat Megalomys occurs in reddish-brown phosphatic “oolite” fillings of irregular cavities in a marine limestone found by Mr. P. H. DE BUISONJÉ in the north-western part of the Duivelsklip, eastern Curaçao, about 50 m above sea-level. The “oolite” also contains scanty remains of lizards, snakes, and of a bat. Fragmentary molluscs present possibly include Cerion uva (L.), a recent, very common, terrestrial species, as well as other gastropods, many opercula of which were found. Samples of a phosphatic “oölite” deposit collected in 1937 by Dr. P. WAGENAAR HUMMELINCK from an escarpment near Fontein, Bonaire, proved to contain jaws, with teeth, of a... |

SYNOPSIS A rhinoceros from the Fort Ternan site, Kenya, Late Miocene in age, represents a form distinctly more advanced than the genera and species known from the Early Miocene although it is not directly ancestral to the Quaternary forms. It is a collaterally developed tuskless, two-horned, browsing species from the same ancestral stock as the modern Diceros bicornis (L.), and it is named Paradiceros mukirii. This is the first rhinocerotid filling the gap between the African Early Miocene and the Pleistocene rhinocerotids. Through the courtesy of Dr. L. S. B. Leakey the writer has been priviliged to study the rhinocerotid remains of the Fort Ternan site, housed in the Centre for Prehistory and Palaeontology, National Museum, Nairobi. The site, whence came... |

The material to be described below forms part of a collection of fossil vertebrates made by Dr. J. Cosijn North of Djetis and Perning in Eastern Java (Cosijn, 1931, 1932). The Cosijn collection has not yet been fully described, some preliminary identifications were made by the late Prof. Dr. J. H. F. Umbgrove (in Cosijn, 1931, pp. 118-119). The collection is preserved in the Geological Museum at Leiden ; I have previously described the remains of rhinoceros (Hooijer, 1946, pp. 3, 55, 73, and 76) and those of hippopotamus (Hooijer, 1950, pp. 66, 69-72, and 87-108). It is a pleasure again to acknowledge my indebtedness to Prof. Dr. B. G. Escher and to Prof. Dr. I. M. van der Vlerk for permission to study this valuable material. Umbgrove's first conclusion... |

In a recent monograph, Maglio (1973) states that Stegodon hypsilophus Hooijer (1954a) must be considered a synonym of Elephas celebensis (Hooijer, 1949). Though Elephas celebensis is smaller-toothed and more hypsodont than the "hypsilophous stegodont" of Java (width of M3 42-52 mm against 62-64 mm; height-width index 106-116 against 87-89: Hooijer, 1954a, b; Maglio, 1973: 46, table 21), Maglio (1973: 47) considers the differences not great when the degree of variation of known samples (in other species) is allowed for. Over the years, I studied molars of pygmy proboscideans from various Indonesian islands, and it never occurred to me that the Java pygmy would be same as that from Celebes until this suggestion was put forth by Dr. Maglio. I had described... |

The fossil remains described in the present contribution as well as in previous numbers of this series (Hooijer, 1948a-c, 1949, 1953) were collected some years ago by Mr. H. R. van Heekeren at various localities in the Tjabengè area, Sopeng district, about 100 km Northeast of Macassar in Southwestern Celebes. I owe the opportunity to study this material to Prof. Dr. A. J. Bernet Kempers, Head of the Dinas Purbakala R.I. at Djakarta, Java. The elements to the Tjabengè fauna described thus far from Mr. Van Heekeren's collection are a giant tortoise, a babirusa, an aberrant extinct suid (Celebochoerus), an anoa, and a pygmy elephantine, the molars of which are just a 50 per cent scale reduction of their homologues in Archidiskodon planifrons (Falconer et... |

In 1876 beschreef Van Beneden (1876: 799) resten van een kleine zeehond uit het Scaldisien van het Bekken van Antwerpen als Phocanella minor. Newton (1891: 19/20) meldde een humerus fragment van deze soort afkomstig uit het Nodule Bed van de Red Crag bij Foxhall, 4 mijl Z.W. van Woodbridge in Suffolk. Een fragment van een femur werd door Van Deinse (1927: 1363) gerapporteerd van de Groeve van Wiegerink ten noorden van Zwolle; dit zou tot nu toe de enige fossiele vondst van Phocanella minor uit ons land zijn. Het zwarte botje waarvan hier nu melding wordt gemaakt ontving ik van Dr. P. H. de Buisonjé en is afkomstig van een schelpenzuiger in de Westerschelde. Het is een groot deel van het heiligbeen (sacrum), en de overeenkomst met het sacrum van Phocanella... |

In 1944 Miss Dr. A. Schreuder sent me for identification a fossil horncore, which according to the accompanying letter came from a well-boring near Grubbenvorst (province of Limburg). It was found in a coarse sandy layer with gravel at a depth of 61.50 m below the surface; the topographic height of the latter is given as 24.53 m + N.A.P. (N.A.P. = sea-level at Amsterdam). Dr. J. F. Steenhuis, geologist to the Government Geological Foundation, informed me that deep borings for the water-supply of Central-Limburg have been made in the years 1918, 1919, and 1922 S. and S.E. of Grubbenvorst. Evidently we have to do with boring no. I of October 1918, which reached a depth of 83 m, the top being at 24.50 m + N.A.P. (Geological Foundation Index no. 695/4). The... |

The species mentioned in the title of the present contribution was first described on the base of two incomplete upper molars, some fragments, and two portions of limb bones (Hooijer, 1949). The two and only complete molars were described later (Hooijer, 1953a). To this has been added the description of the milk dentition and of three premolars (Hooijer, 1953c). There are, however, important lacunae in our knowledge of the molar dentition to be filled. It remains as yet uncertain whether the type upper molar of 1949 represents M2 or M3, while the smaller of the complete lower molars of 1953 could be either M1 or M2. The prolonged study of the fragmentary molars in the Celebes collection has now made it possible to assemble the full set of upper and lower... |

The genus and species Turkanatherium acutirostratus was proposed by Deraniyagala (1951) for a skull, without the mandible, collected by Dr. H. B. S. Cooke, a member of the Wendell-Phillips Expedition to Africa in 1948, at Moruaret Hill (or Moruorot) near Losodok (or Lothidok) in the Turkana district, Kenya. The holotype is in the Colombo Museum, Ceylon. Dr. Deraniyagala has had the courtesy to send me a series of good photographs of the specimen to supplement his own descriptions and published figures, for which I am very grateful. This has enabled me to identify among material in the Tervuren Museum, Belgium, originating from (Early) Miocene deposits at Karugamania, Lake Albert, Western Rift Valley in Congo, a number of teeth pertaining to the very same... |

The genus Celebochoerus was based by me (Hooijer, 1948) on two fragments of upper canines of rather large size, different from their homologues in Sus celebensis Müller and Babyrousa babyrussa (L.), the two living species of Suidae of Celebes. The specimens originate from Pleistocene deposits at Desa Beru, Tjabenge (Sopeng district), about 100 km N.E. of Macassar, S. Celebes, and were collected by Mr. H. R. van Heekeren, prehistorian to the Archaeological Survey at Macassar. In the meantime I have received more specimens of upper canines, collected by Mr. Van Heekeren at Desa Beru and also at Sompoh, 12 km N. of Beru. These specimens, like those first described, are surface finds and consequently more or less water-worn. They show a great deal of variation... |

While studying the collection of recent oxen of the Museum my attention was drawn to the problem of the nomenclature of the Java banteng. I believe to have been able to clear up the confusion that still exists today, as will be set forth in the present note. The wild ox of Java, the banteng, is known variously as Bos sondaicus or Bos banteng, but neither of these is the earliest available valid name. The species should have been called: Bibos javanicus (d'Alton) B[os] Javanicus d'Alton, Skelete der Wiederkäuer, Bonn, 1823, p. (7), pl. VIII fig. c. The earliest reference to the banteng of Java I have been able to find is in Pennant (1800, p. 35): "Mr. Loten told me that wild oxen, of a reddish brown color, with vast horns, and of a great size, are found in... |

Since 1948 Mr. H. R. van Heekeren, then prehistorian to the Archaeological Survey of the Dutch East Indies, kept up an intermittent search for fossil teeth and bones that occur in association with Palaeolithic artifacts at Beru and Sompoh, near Tjabenge (Sopeng district), about 100 km Northeast of Macassar in Southwestern Celebes. These sites are now known to yield an interesting vertebrate fauna, presumably Pleistocene in age, the first found elements of which were described a few years ago (Hooijer, 1948, 1949). One of the most remarkable discoveries in the Tjabengè area made by Mr. Van Heekeren is a small elephantine that I have named Archidiskodon celebensis (Hooijer, 1949). It was based on an almost complete and unworn upper molar, and on a similar... |

In a paper on Miocene Congo mammals (Hooijer, 1963) I described and figured a number of rhinoceros specimens, including a P4, an M1 and an M3 from the Karugamania region, Lake Albert, Western Rift Valley (pl. 6 fig. 1-3, pl. 7 fig. 1, 3, 4, 5, 8, pl. 8 fig. 2) as Aceratherium acutirostratum (Deraniyagala), an upper incisor from the same region (pl. 7 fig. 2) as Rhinocerotidarum gen. et spec. indet., and an M2 from the Sinda-Mohari region, Lower Semliki area (pl. 8 fig. 4-6) as Aceratherium cf. tetradactylum (Lartet). Later, with rich collections from the East African Miocene available through the courtesy of Dr. L. S. B. Leakey, I corrected some of these identifications, referring the Lake Albert and Sinda upper I and M2 to Brachypotherium heinzelini... |

Few fossil remains of rodents have been collected in Java until now, and they have received little attention. In the reports published during his paleontological researches in Java, Dubois twice records finds of Hystrix remains, viz., at Pati-Ajam in Japara (Anonymus, 1891, p. 12/13), and in the region between Bangle and Djeroek (Anonymus, 1893, p. 12). In a subsequent paper (Dubois, 1907, p. 454) we find mention of the presence of porcupines in the fossil fauna of Java, but in his review of the latter fauna Dubois (1908) bestows no words upon these rodents. The Selenka Expedition to Trinil secured one tooth, which was figured by Stremme (1911, p. 83, pl. XVI fig. 5) as a right M2 of a small species of Hystrix. Finally a tooth of Hystrix from Sangiran II... |

A male skull of Tapirus terrestris (L.) originating from Dutch Guiana (Leiden Museum, reg. no. 11632), received from the Rotterdam Zoological Garden through the kind intermediary of Mr. F. J. APPELMAN on July 15, 1952, is remarkable for the abnormal development of its right P1. The full permanent dentition is in place except for the posterior premolars and last molars, which are in alveolo. The teeth are but little worn and, apart from the right P1, they do not show anv unusual characters. The left P1 has the shape normally found in the Brazilian tapir; the crown is triangular with rounded angles, and bears a continuous outer crest (ectoloph) extending from the front angle (parastyle) to the posterior outer cusp (metacone). The position of the central... |
