chap. xi. Mammiferous Remains of. 369 



Equus, and a great Dasypoid quadruped near St. Fe Bajada, I 

 received an account of bones having been found a little SE. of 

 P. Gorda (on the Parana), and of an entire skeleton at Matanzas, 

 on the Arroyo del Animal. 



In Banda Oriental, besides the remains of the Toxodon, Mylo- 

 don, and two skeletons of great animals with osseous armour (dis- 

 tinct from that of the Glyptodon), found on the Arroyos Sarandis 

 and Berquelo, M. Isabelle (' Voyage/ p.- 822) says, many bones 

 have been found near the R. Negro, and on the Ii. Arapey, an 

 affluent of the Paraguay, in lat. 30° 40 / south. I heard of bones 

 near the source of the A. Vivoras. I saw the remains of a Dasy- 

 poid quadruped from the Arroyo Seco, close to M. Video ; and 

 M. d'Orbigny refers (' Voyage, Geolog.' p. 24) to another-found on 

 the Pedernal, an affluent of the St. Lucia ; and Signor Angelis, in 

 a letter, states that a third skeleton of this family has been found 

 near Oanelones. I saw a tooth of the Mastodon from Talas, 

 another affluent of the St. Lucia. The most eastern point at 

 which I heard of great bones having been found, was at Solis 

 Grande, between M. Video and Maldonado.
