373 two species Macrauchenia Patachonica and M. Boliviensis, remnants of the remarkable South American Pliocene fauna. With certain characters approximating it to the camel and horse, it is claimed by Burmeister that the animal was provided with a proboscidiform trunk. TTngulata Artiodactyla (Even-toed hoofed-animals). — The members of thij sub-order, both recent and fossil, are conveniently- divided into two groups — those which, lilce the hog, have the grinding surfaces of the molar teeth tub...erculated (Bunodonta), and those, in which these surfaces are crescentically ridged, as in the sheep, ox, deer (Selenodonta). The first of these groups, the Bunodonta, comprises but two families, the swine (Suidse) and the hippopotami (Hippopotamidse). Of the hippopotami there are, as generally recognised, only two species, the common form (H. amphibius), which until re- cently inhabited most of the larger streams of the continent of Africa, from the Congo, Senegal, and Zambesi to the Nile, but whose domain has of late been rapidly narrowing (completely ex- cluded from the Egyptian Nile), an«b the West African Choeropsia Liberiensis, a comparatively small animal, differing primarily from the first in the possession of only a single pair of incisors in the lower jaw instead of two pairs.
