ABSTRACT IT is with the greatest satisfaction that we welcome the first-named instalment of an important work. The Santa Cruz Tertiary mammalian fauna is one of the most interesting and


remarkable in the world, and we have now, for the first time, a guarantee that it will be described in a manner worthy of its importance. Hitherto this wonderful fauna has been but very


scantily represented in museums outside of the Argentine, and in consequence students could gain only a very impenect idea of its extent and affinities owing to the majority of the


descriptions being of a more or less preliminary nature and inadequately illustrated. The acquisition by the Princeton Museum of the very large series of specimens collected by the


expeditions to Patagonia under the charge of Mr. J. B. Hatcher from 1896–1899, together with a careful survey of all the other known collections, has now rendered it possible to publish full


and adequate descriptions of all the more important types, and through the liberality of Mr. J. Pierpont Morgan the work will not be cramped for lack of illustrations. SIMILAR CONTENT BEING
