Tragoportax gaudryi Pilgrim 1937

Creators

Description

- Tragoportax gaudryi, based upon a maxilla (M 1- M 3 = 53.8); its measurements indeed fit what SPASSOV & GERAADS (2004) called Miotragocerus (Pikermicerus) gaudryi. In addition, a mandible in the SMNK (Fig. 1 N) also fits this species in size and very long premolars (p2-p4 = 47.5; m1–m3 = 62), and this identification can be accepted.
