Eoproterotherium Ameghino 



Eoproterotherium Amegh., 1904, Anal. Mus. Xac. B. A., ser. 3, t. 3, p. 441. 



The genus is founded on single teeth of the upper molar 

 series, which, except for size, are 

 very like those of P rot er other i um. 

 Limbs, etc., are unknown, so that 

 this genus is simply a carrying back 

 of the P roter other i um line into 

 the Deseado. We found no teeth of Fig . ,. .,. EoprotcrotlierllIm 

 this form, but one species has l^een K^cZu^ 

 described, E. iuaequifacies, of which 

 I reproduce Ameghino's figure com- 

 pared with Proterotherium, which shows this species to 

 have the metaconule better developed. 



therium karaikense, third 

 upper molar — natural size, 

 after Ameghino. 



Notodiaphorus gen. no v. 



The basis of this genus is particularly a hind limb found 

 associated which is much less developed than the Santa 

 Cruz genus Diadiaphorus to which it is most nearly related. 

 These two genera are unique in having the ectal facet on
