"Lartet sur les Migrations anciennes des Mamif. de l'epoque actuelle." It seems the bones of existing African Elephant & 2-horned Rhinoceros have been [found] in Spain & France - He believes that by summer migrations the S or African Fauna became mingled with the N. or Siberian Mammals - He remarks well that the African Fauna is tertiary in Europe & recent now in Africa & it seems that the Siberian mammal prexisted before glacial times in Siberia.
