Eden beds, California. Antilocapridae The portion of a forked horn or horn core and specimens of long, narrow-crowned, upper and lower molar teeth are here tentatively referred to the antilocaprine group on the evidence of a slight resemblance of the horn core, and of the marked similarity of the associated teeth to those of the living form.
