It is interesting to note that while remains of Anthracotheres 

 and Rhinoceroses of all kinds are very abundant in the Dera 

 Bngti deposits, Chalicothere remains are here, as elsewhere, 

 extremely rare. They seem to have been of solitary as well as 

 of strange habits, though recent discoveries seem to point to 

 Moropus having been to some extent gregaiious. 



J^i^ote. — The specimens mentioned in this paper together with 

 all the other Chalicothere material fiom Baluchistan have been 

 ^dded to the British Museum collections.
