Ameghino, P. intermedius Ameghino, P. pressiforatus Ameghino, and P. minu- 
tus Ameghino, from the Tertiary of southern Patagonia. 
Renamed Epanorthus by Ameghino in 1889. ''Este nombre [ Palvothentes] es 
imposible, debiéndose escribir Paloteuthis, pero desgraciadamente ya ha sido 
empleado con anticipación por D'Orbigny [in 1847] para distinguir un género 
de moluscos.”’

LvDEKKER, in Flower & Lydekker's Mamm., Living & Extinct, 349, 1891. 
Lapsus for Palwotragus Gaudry, 1861. ‘‘ The earliest of these genera, and the 
first representative of the antelopes yet known is Protragoceros. . . .  Palswo- 
tragoceros and Tragoceros of the Lower Pliocene are distinguished by their 
larger horns and wider molars."  (l. c., 349.) Compare this with Nichol- 
son & Lydekker (Man. Paleont., II, 1348-1349, 1889), from which the state- 
ment is evidently taken: ‘‘ The earliest of these genera, and indeed of all the 
antelopes, is Protragoceros . . . In Pal«otragus and. Tragoceros . . . the horns 
were larger, and the molars wider." 
Extinct.
