Abstract: This paper gave a brief deseription to the Artiodactyla fossils of the Ramapithecus site, Lufeng. Yunna
The material of Artiodactyla is very plentiful, but this paper deseribes mainly skulls, horns and teeth. Detailed deseription of all specimen will be given later.
The results of preliminary study is that there are at least 10 gerera and 2 species in these order. They are:
Hyotherium sp. H. ef. PalaeochoerusLophochoerus lufengensis Potamochoerus sp. 1. 2. 3. Suidae gen. et sp. indet Dorcabune sp. Dorcatherium sp. nov. Moschus sp. Dicroceros sp. Metacervulus cf. simplexMetacervulus sp. nov. 1. 2Muntiacus ef. nanus Teilhard et TrassaertMuntiacus sp. nov. Muntiacus 8p. 1. 2Cervidae gen. et sp. indet 1. 2Selenoportax sp. Bovidae gen. et sp. indet Fossils of all the above taxonomic units occur in 6 main fossiferous layers of Lufeng section D of Iate Miocene beds, but very rare in the first layer, the Dorcabune, Muntiacus, Selenoportax are the only Artiodactyla present. The fossils of Seleloportax are in great number, but only two teeth of Hyotherium cf. palaeochoerus. Lophochoerus and Selenoportax are the first record in China.
Compared with the subeontinent India-Pakistan Middle fauna and the North China Ertemte fauna, they show close affinities. Its geological age is Late Miocene, equivalent to the Turolian of European sequence of land mammal ages.
