This paper contains an announcement of the discovery at Grive-Saint-Alban (Isére) 
of portions of the limb bones and feet of a skeleton of a huge edentate, closely resem- 
bling Macrotherium sansaniense Lartet, for which as a local race M. Depéret proposes 
the name rhodanicum. The principal interest of the discovery is stated by M. Depéret 
to consist in the fact that associated with the remains classified as belonging to Mac- 
rotherium was a skull belonging to a large Chalicotheriuwm, a creature supposed to be 
related to Rhinoceros and Anoplotherium, which M. Filho! has been disposed to regard 
as identical with Macrotherium in consequence of his researches at Sansan. M. Depéret 
points out that the teeth attributed by Gervais to Macrotherium (ZoGél. et Pal. Fr., 
Pl. 48, figs. 1-2) are not those of that animal, but the worn roots of the molars of a 
mastodon, and that, unless the identification of Chalicothervum and Macrotherium pro- 
posed by Filhol holds, the teeth of Macrotherium are unknown.

Mitylini, consisting of superior and milk-dentitions and some foot-bones. The opin-

The author calls attention to the resemblance between the dentition of Menisco- 
thervum Cope and Chalicotherium Kaup, and suggests the distant relationship of the 
two genera.
