Barstow Mio- cene, Mohave Desert, California. An axis, no. 21499 (figs. 124ft, 124o), from the Barstow is nearly identical in form and dimensions with the axis of Capromeryx from the Pleistocene of Rancho La Brea. The spout of the Barstow speci- men is extended almost as far up on the sides as in Capromeryx, the Barstow form being in this respect possibly a trifle less advanced. M{?). coronatus Merriam. Univ. Calif. Publ., Bull. Dept. Geol., vol. 7, pp. 335-339, 1913. The type specimen-, consisting of a single fragmentary horn or antler, no. 20052, found by Buwalda and Mourning in 1913, repre- sents a horn or antler of peculiar type, unlike any form known to the writer. 35 Matthew, W.
