Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Guide to the Elephants (Recent and Fossil) Exhibited in the Department of Geology and Palæntology in the British Museum (Natural History) The object of this Guide-book is to give a general account of the Proboscidea or Elephants, referring especially to the various stages they passed through in the course of their evolution from the Eocene period to recent times. Fortunately for the present purpose, the British Museum possesses the most extensive series of Proboscidea to be found anywhere, so that, except in very few instances, readers can see in the S.E. Gallery of Geology the actual specimens, or, at any rate, casts of the specimens, upon which the following descriptions are based, and can to some extent check the accuracy of the various statements for themselves.
