چکیده
|
Giraffokeryx is represented in the middle miocene vertebrate assemblage from the chinji formation by 13 remains. the material comprises predominantly isolated teeth,and a few fragments of maxilla and mandible. the well preserved upper and lower dentition allows recognizing the presence of giraffokeryx cf. punjabiensis in the chinji formation of the lower siwaliks. a detailed description of the fossils and their taxonomic classification is being provided. the validity of the new species giraffokeryx chinjiensis sarwar,1990 is discussed and the synonymy with giraffa priscilla is proposed. copyright © 2012 zoological society of pakistan.
