Elephant evolution, artwork. These four species are all part of the elephant evolutionary tree. They are: the Columbian mammoth (top, Mammuthus columbi), Deinotherium (centre), Platybelodon (lower left) and Moeritherium (lower right). Fossils of the Columbian mammoth date to the Late Pleistocene, and it went extinct around 10,000 years ago. Deinotherium appeared in the Middle Miocene (around 14 million years ago) and continued until the Early Pleistocene (around 2 million years ago). Moeritherium existed during the Eocene (55 to 38 million years ago) and Platybelodon existed during the Miocene (24 to 5 million years ago).
