540 OSSIFEROUS CAVES OF GOWEE. 



The fossil remains found in the deposits in ' Long Hole ' Cave were 

 transmitted to me for identification by Col. Wood, and are as follows : — 



Carnivora. — Ursus spelams. Putorius vulgaris. Canis lupus. Canis 

 vulpes. Hyaena spela?a. Meles Taxus. Lutra vulgaris. Felis spelaea. 

 Felis catus. Mustek foina ? 



Pachydermata. — Rhinoceros hemitcechus. Ehinoceros tichorhinus. 

 Elephas antiquus. Elephas primigenius. Equus Caballus. Equus 

 Asinus. Sus scrofa. 



Ruminantia. — Cervus euryeerus. Cervus Guettardi. Cervus Taran- 

 dus. Cervus Elaphus. Bison priscus. 



Rodentia. — Lepus cuniculus. Lepus timidus. Arvicola amphibius. 



Flint implements, unquestionably of human manufacture, were found 

 along with these fossil remains, and were also sent to me by Col. Wood. 

 One very fine flint arrow-head was found contiguous to, and at the 

 same depth as, a detached shell of a milk molar of Rhinoceros hemitce- 

 chus. The part of the cave where they were found was about 6 feet 

 from the entrance, and at a depth of 4J feet in the cave earth. Other 

 flint implements were found at a depth of 3 feet below the stalagmite, 

 associated with specimens of Cervus Guettardi and the pecidiar form 

 of ' Marten,' of which two lower jaws were found in ' Eaven's Cliff' (p. 

 520) above the stalagmite. (Mustela foina ?)
