Abstract
THE fossil vertebrata of South America are of peculiar interest to English palæontologists, since much of our earlier knowledge of the extinct mammals of that region is due to collections sent to this country by Sir Woodbine Parish and Darwin, and described by Owen, Clift, and others. These collections, however, valuable as they were, gave no idea of the extraordinary variety and abundance of the extinct fauna, the full importance of which has only been recognised of late years.
