The author considers that we may look upon Central Europe and N. 
America as the two great central points from which the Tertiary Mam- 
malian fauna has spread. A summary is then given of the chief char- 
acters of the Mammals of the different Tertiary horizons of Europe, 
America, and Asia ; and the relations of extinct to existing types are 
subsequently more fully discussed. It is considered that Ungulates are 
descended from primitive Carnivorous types, and that the Condylarthra 
represent the transitional forms.
