This group of animals presents no living species of Mammalis,. 

 and it is only classed with the Pliocene because of the presence of 

 well-defined Upper-Pliocene species, such as Mastodon arvernensis, 

 Wiinoceros megarhinus, Ursus arvernensis, and Oervus cusanus.. 

 The extinct genera HycEnarctos, Mastodon, and Hipjparion survived' 

 from the Miocene ; and the two apes belong to the living genera, 

 Macacus and Semnopithecus. None of the deer possess large antlers ; 

 nor have the hogs large canines.
