1. Rogersville, Hawkins County.—In the U. S. National Museum is a part of a lower left canine tooth of a peccary found near the place mentioned. With it came an upper molar of Equus leidyi. The tooth lacks most of the crown. It has been described by the writer under the name Mylohyus setiger (Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus., vol. LVIII, p. 84, plate III, figs. 21–23). The root of the tooth is 93 mm. long, measured along the convexity of the curve. A little of the tip of the root is missing. The size of the tooth indicates a very large animal.

2. Whitesburg, Hamblen County.—In the U. S. National Museum is a considerable collection of bones and teeth made in 1885 near Whitesburg. This locality and the accompanying species will be discussed on another page. Among the remains are 3 upper canine teeth, referred by the writer (Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus., vol. LVIII, p. 90, plate III, figs. 12–13) to Mylohyus nasutus Leidy. A list of the associated species will be found on page [395].

3. Dandridge, Jefferson County.—In 1896 (Dept. Amer. and Prehist. Archæol. Univ. Penn.), Dr. H. C. Mercer reported he had found remains of the tapir, peccary, bear, and small rodents in Zirkel’s Cave. The cave is situated on the left bank of Dumplin Creek, about 5 miles above its entrance into French Broad River. The species to which the peccary remains belonged was not determined.
