抄録

We describe fossil dental specimens of a chalicothere (Perissodactyla, Mammalia) and Dorcabune (Tragulidae, Artiodactyla, Mammalia) discovered from the upper part (lower Pleistocene) of the Irrawaddy Formation at Gwebin area, central Myanmar. The specimens described here consist of three molar fossils: a left upper molar and a left M, or M 2 of a chalicothere (cf. Nestoritherium sp.); and a right M3 of Dorcabune sp. Although fragmentally, this is the first discovery of the Chalicotheriidae and Dorcabune from the upper part of the Irrawaddy Formation.
