Family Bovidae View in CoL GRAY, 1821

The SMNK collection contains only a few tooth rows, but no postcranials or horn cores; this is a very unlikely anatomical composition for a late Miocene Aegean site, and some of them must be stored elsewhere, but I have been unable to locate them. KÖHLER (1987) described some more cranial remains, now stored in the Geozentrum Hannover. I have not seen them, and her identifications were based upon very limited material. She listed:

Kingdom

Animalia

Phylum

Chordata

Class

Mammalia

Order

Artiodactyla

Family

Bovidae
