5. Newberry, Alachua County.—This is the locality mentioned by Dall (Bull. 84, U. S. Geol. Survey, p. 128) under the name of Hallowells; but he mentioned no fossils from this place. In the Report of the Florida Geological Survey, volume v, page 58, Sellards stated that a species of Hipparion had been discovered in the hard phosphate. In the eighth report of the same survey, on page 42, the present writer described a specifically undetermined species of Parahippus, also from the phosphate deposits. On page 94 Dr. Sellards reported Equus littoralis and Odocoileus from Newberry. The writer has identified as Equus littoralis, a horse represented by a lower left hindermost molar, found at Newberry.
6. Archer, Alachua County.—Dr. Joseph Leidy, in 1885 (Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci. Phila., pp. 32, 33), described from this place a rhinoceros, Rhinoceros proterus, and Hippotherium ingenuum. In 1886 (ibid., pp. 11, 12) he again mentioned these species and described in addition to them Mastodon floridanus and 3 species of camels which he referred to the genus Auchenia. In a list furnished by Leidy to Dr. W. H. Dall (Bull. U. S. Geol. Surv., No. 84, p. 129), there are listed, besides the species mentioned, Megatherium and Cervus virginianus?, all found in the Alachua clays and usually referred to the Lower Miocene or Upper Pliocene. In the list presented on page [375], under the geology of Florida, a species of tapir is added. At present the writer assigns the deposits known as the Alachua clays to lowermost Pleistocene.
7. Williston, Levy County.—In the American Museum of Natural History, New York, is an upper last molar of Equus, found at the place named and presented by E. Mixon. The enamel is not much plicated. The size of the tooth indicated that it belonged to E. leidyi. In the list of vertebrates unearthed at Mixon’s (near Williston), furnished by Leidy to Dall, were included two species of Hippotherium, H. ingenuum and H. plicatile. These species are now referred to the genus Hipparion. H. plicatile was described by Leidy in 1887 (Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci. Phila., p. 309). A list of the species at present known to have been obtained here is to be found on page [375] under the geology of Florida. They have all been found in the Alachua clays and are usually regarded as belonging to the late Tertiary.
8. Ocala, Marion County.—In 1889 (Trans. Wagner Inst., vol. II, p. 13), Leidy reported the discovery of some fossil vertebrates in a fissure in a limestone rock near Ocala. Some equine teeth he referred to Equus fraternus (=E. leidyi). The other species were identified as Smilodon floridanus, Elephas columbi, and (with some doubt) Procamelus minimus. For conclusions regarding the geology of the locality see page [378].
9. Dunnellon, Marion County.—The writer has examined 2 fossil horse-teeth found near Dunnellon, now the property of the Florida Geological Survey. No. 1366 is from the Camp Phosphate Company’s Blue Run mine. It is a first or second upper molar, worn down to a height of only an inch and having a grinding-surface 26 mm. long and 25 mm. wide and with a protocone 12 mm. long fore-and-aft. No. 1444, also a first or second upper molar, has a height of 47 mm., a length of 24 mm., a width of 23 mm., and a protocone of 11.5 mm. The enamel of the lakes is much plicated. The teeth are identified as those of Equus leidyi. No. 1444 has been figured by Sellards (7th Ann. Rep. Florida Geol. Surv., p. 111, fig. 40) and described as dredged from the Schilmann and Bene river mine, on Withlacoochee River.
On page [376], under the geology of Florida, will be found a list of the species obtained at Dunnellon and the surrounding region. In this list is included Parahippus sp. indet. and Hipparion plicatile. Dr. Sellards believes that many species of that list belong to the Pleistocene. The horse-like species, the rhinoceros, and the camel are held by him as being older than the Pleistocene.
10. Hernando, Citrus County.—At this place have been secured Gomphotherium floridanum, Hipparion sp. indet., and Procamelus sp. indet., all from the phosphate deposits and referred by Sellards to the Upper Miocene or the Lower Pliocene.
11. Holder, Citrus County.—In the collection of Dr. H. G. Bystra, of Holden, is a fossil horse-tooth dredged from Withlacoochee River, in section 29, township 17 south, range 19 east. The species to which the tooth belonged has not been determined.
12. Orange County.—The writer has seen, in the collection of the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia, an upper right last molar of Equus, labeled as found in the county named. Nothing more is known by the writer about the tooth.
13. Eau Gallie, Brevard County.—In 1916 (8th Ann. Rep. Florida Geol. Surv., p. 105), Sellards stated that at this place, in the Hopkins drainage canal, had been collected teeth of Elephas columbi and Equus complicatus.
