III.—Note on the Distribution in Time and Space of the Genera of Siwalik Mammals and Birds

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  01 May 2009

Extract

Having completed the description of the mammals and birds at present known from the Siwaliks of India and Burma (a list of the former being given in the September number of this Magazine, pp. 426–8), I have thought it well to publish a short account of the distribution in time and space of the Siwalik genera of these two classes, as a prelude to a more extended notice, which I hope to give in the “Palæontologia Indica” when I have completed the description of the whole vertebrate fauna of the Siwaliks.
