The Mammalian fossils which I have provisionally placed under the head of Miocene 
comprise three groups; the first of these is from Kushalghar, forty miles to the south of 
Attock. In the early part of the present year I made a journey to Attock for the purpose 
of re-discovering the beds from which these fossils had been obtained ; unfortunately I had 
not been correctly informed as to the precise locality at which the fossils had been found, 
and I was consequently unsuccessful in the main object of my journey. The exact 
horizon of these beds must therefore be still an unsettled question : from the marked differ¬ 
ence between their small fauna and that of the typical Siwalik area, I am inclined to think 
that they may belong to a somewhat earlier period, such as the Kalian of Mr. Medlipott ; 
red strata corresponding to the latter occur in the neighbourhood from which the fossils 
were obtained. The original specimens from this locality are now in the Indian Museum ; 
those to which Falconer’s name is added in the following list were shortly noticed by him 
in a manuscript note (“ Pal. Mem., Vol. I, p. 415) ; the following list contains all the species 
known to me from this locality ;— 
Pboboscidia. 
Mastodon sp. Ind. Mus. Dinotherium pentapotamicum, Falc. 
Peeissodactyla. 
Listriodon pentapotamise, Falc. (gen. mihi.) Antoletherium, Falc. 
Rhinoceros sp. n. Ind. Mus. 
Aetiodactyla. 
Merycopotamus sp. mihi.* Sus pusillus, Falc. 
Dorcatherium sp. mihi. 
Caenivoba. 
Ampbicyon sp. n. Falc. 
With regard to other formations below the typical Siwaliks, the fossils are so few and 
so fragmentary, that very few of them can be specifically determined. Mr. Wynne has 
collected a fragmentary tooth of a species of Mastodon from the Ktihan beds of the Bakrala 
range near Jhilum. From the Sabathu nummulitic beds of Fatehjang and its neighbour¬ 
hood Mr. Wynne has obtained a considerable series of bones, but mostly in a very unsatis¬ 
factory condition. 
From the beds immediately overlying the Mammaliferous clays of Fatehjang, I have 
recognised the perfect astragalus of an Artiodactyle animal; the form of this bone shows that 
the navicular and cuboid were united; the animal was therefore probably a Ruminant. 
From the Sabathu nunmulitics we have a femur of a Perissodactyle animal allied to Rhino¬ 
ceros. These are the oldest Mammalian remains yet discovered in India. 
Having now shortly noticed the faunae of the various Mammaliferous boils of India, it 
remains firstly to consider their relationship one to another, and subsequently the relationship 
of the whole group to the living and fossil Mammalian faunae of other regions of the globe.
