The most remarkable point in regard to the vertical distribution 

 of the Froboscidea is their apparently sudden appearance in the 

 Middle Miocene of Europe, where they are represented by Dino- 

 iherium giganteum and Mastodon angustidens. Although the former 

 is evidently a generalized form connecting the Eleplianthto with 



1 Bull. Soc. Geol. France, se>. 3, vol. vii. p. 51 (1879). Said to be interme- 

 diate between E. antiquus and E. africanus. 



' 2 Phil. Trans. 1882, p. 777. Founded upon a fragment of an incisor, which 

 apparently presents no characters by which it can be generically distinguished 

 from a t.iibk of Elephas or Mastodon.
