83 



indicus has also been obtained by Mr. Foote in the same formation. Antilope 

 cervicapra is represented by a fossil born-core in the Indian Museiim whose 

 exact locality is uncertain. Antlers, horn-cores, and teeth of species of Hos 

 and Oervus have been obtained from alluvia of various parts of the plains, 

 and from raised beaches on the Kattiawar (Kattywar) coast ; as, however, 

 these specimens are not yet specifically determined, no more can be said 

 about them. 



List of the Fossil Veetebrata of India and Bttiima. 

 The following list exhibits in a systematic form all the well-establish- 

 ed species of Indian and Burman fossil vertebrata, together with the best 

 authenticated of the unnamed species with which I am acquainted. For 

 the great divisions of geological times, the terms Anthropozoic (Age-of- 

 Man), Theriozoic (Age-of-Mammals), Saurozoic (Age-of- Reptiles), and 

 Ichthyozoic (Age-of- Fishes), have been employed in lieu of the old terms 

 Post-Tertiary, Kainozoic, Mesozoic, and Paleozoic, as being more applicable 

 to a chronology of vertebrate evolution, and as forming a series of symme- 

 trical terms.
