1. Newbern, Hale County.—In August 1914, there was received at the U. S. National Museum, from Mr. J. W. White, of Newbern, a lower right last molar of a species of bison reported found in a creek, and an incisor tooth of a horse, which appear to be fossilized. The bison tooth had just begun to wear. The fore-and-aft length of the crown is 37 mm. The locality is somewhat outside of the range of Bison bison as given by Allen on his map (“American Bisons, Living and Extinct”). The fossil may well belong to some extinct species and have lived in that region in middle Pleistocene times.
