The study of a natural endocranial
cast of Paroxyaena has shown that its
vision was an important system of afferentation,
but did not prevail over others,
unlike that of Neohyaenodon. The olfaction
was much better developed than in
Neohyaenodon. The large gyrus prorealis
suggests the presence of a long mobile
nose. The well-developed sensomotoric
cortex is evidence that the forepaw
of Paroxyaena showed a high mobility.

Gobiocerus mongolicus Sokolov,
1952, Turcocerus kekemaidengensis Ye
Jie et al., 1999; and Hypsodontus sp.
were recorded in Miocene deposits of
the Valley of Lakes (MN4-MN8) and
Oioceros atropatenes (Rodler et
Weithofer, 1890) occurred in the Mio-
Pliocene (MN11-MN20) of northwestern
Mongolia. Gobiocerus, Turcocerus,
and Hypsodontus represent the same
evolutionary lineage. Thus, Caprinae
existed in Central Asia in the Early Miocene.
They diverged from the Bovidae at
the Oligocene-Miocene boundary. The
presence of early bovids in this region
suggests that this group could have appeared
in Central Asia.

and small mammals from the
Kuznetsovka locality, Pleistocene of the
Oka-Don Plain. ( 英 文 ). Agadjanian A K;

Kuznetsovka, a very rich locality of
Interglacial mollusks and small mammals
overlies the Donian Glacial strata
of the Oka-Don Plain. Mollusks and
small mammal from this locality are described
in detail. The crucial stage in the
development of Middle Pleistocene mollusk
and mammal faunas is investigated.
The data obtained allow the dating of
fossiliferous deposits and reconstruction
of sedimentation and environmental
conditions of the fauna. The comparison
of the Kuznetsovka Fauna with materials
from central and western Europe permits
its direct correlation with the fauna of
the Cromerian stratotype in West Runton
(Norfolk, England). Thus, the deposits
of the Kuznetsovka section were
formed during the second half of the
early Middle Pleistocene.
