Two fossils of Orellan age, found in northeastern Colorado +and described here, demonstrate that the geochronological +range of the Apatemyidae extends into the Middle Oligocene. Isolated +teeth of <i>Sinclairella dakotensis</i> Jepsen, part of a sample of a +Chadronian local fauna collected by field parties from the Webb +School of California, are also described.</p> + +<div class="blockquot"><p>I thank Mr. Raymond M. Alf, Webb School of California, Claremont, +California, and Dr. Peter Robinson, University of Colorado Museum, Boulder, +Colorado, for permitting me to describe the fossils they discovered. Also Dr. +Robinson made available the draft of a short paper he had prepared on the +tooth found in Weld County, Colorado; his work was facilitated by a grant +from the University of Colorado Council on Research and Creative Work. I +also gratefully acknowledge receipt of critical data and valuable comments +from Drs. Edwin C. Galbreath, Glenn L. Jepsen, and Malcolm C. McKenna +who is currently revising the Paleocene apatemyids and studying the phylogenetic +relationships of the family. The prefixes of catalogue numbers used +in the text identify fossils in the collections of the following institutions: KU, +Museum of Natural History, The University of Kansas, Lawrence; Princeton, +Princeton Museum, Princeton, New Jersey; RAM-UCR, Raymond Alf Museum, +Webb School of California, Claremont, California (the permanent repository +for these specimens will be the University of California, Riverside); and UCM, +University of Colorado Museum, Boulder, Colorado. The system of notations +for teeth prescribed for use here is as follows: teeth in the upper half of the +dentition are designated by a capital letter and a number; thus M2 is the notation +for the upper second molar; teeth in the lower half of the dentition are +designated by a lower-case letter and a number; thus p2 is the notation for the +lower second premolar.</p></div> + + + +<hr style="width: 65%;" /><p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_486" id="Page_486">[Pg 486]</a></span></p> +<h3>Family <span class="smcap">Apatemyidae</span> Matthew, 1909<br /> + +Genus <b>Sinclairella</b> Jepsen, 1934<br /> + +<b>Sinclairella dakotensis</b> Jepsen, 1934<br /></h3> + + +<p>The type of the species, Princeton no. 13585, was discovered in +Chadronian strata of the upper part of the Chadron Formation +cropping out in Big Corral Draw, approximately 13 miles south-southwest +of Scenic, in southwestern South Dakota (Jepsen, 1934, +p. 291). Detailed descriptions of the type specimen are given in +papers by Jepsen (1934) and Scott and Jepsen (1936). Isolated +teeth of Chadronian age referable to <i>Sinclairella dakotensis</i> have +been discovered subsequently at a locality in Nebraska and fossils +of Orellan age, also referable to <i>S. dakotensis</i>, have been collected +at two localities in Colorado. The sample from each locality is +described separately.</p> + + +<h3>Sioux County, northwestern Nebraska</h3> + +<div class="blockquot"><p><i>Material.</i>—RAM-UCR nos. 381, left M1; 598, left m2; 1000, right m1; 1001, +right m2; 1079, right m2; 1674, right M2; and 3013, left m2.</p> + +<p><i>Locality and stratigraphy.</i>—These Chadronian fossils were discovered by +Raymond Alf and members of his field parties in several harvester ant mounds +built in exposures of the Chadron Formation in Sec. 26, T 33 N, R 53 W, Sioux +County, Nebraska (Alf, 1962, and Hough and Alf, 1958). This is UCR +locality V5403. The collectors carefully considered the possibility that some +of the fossils found in the ant mounds were collected from younger strata by +the harvester ants and concluded this was unlikely (Alf, personal communication).</p> + +<p><i>Description and comments.</i>—The cusps of RAM-UCR no. 381, a left M1, +are sharp and the wear-facets resulting from occlusion with the lower dentition +are small. The paraconule is a low, ill-defined cusp on the anterior margin +of the crown; a metaconule is not present. A smooth stylar shelf is present +labial to the metacone. The crown was supported by three roots. There are +no interradicular crests.</p> + +<p>The crown of RAM-UCR no. 1674, a right M2, is heavily abraded and +many morphological details of the cusps have been destroyed. Low interradicular +crests linked the three roots of the tooth with a low, central prominence. +As was the case with RAM-UCR no. 381, no significant differences +could be found in comparisons with illustrations of the teeth preserved in +Princeton no. 13585.</p> + +<p>RAM-UCR nos. 598, 1001, 1079, and 3013 all appear to be m2's. The +talonids of these teeth are not elongated, their trigonids have quadrilateral outlines, +and the paraconids are small but prominent, bladelike cusps. The trigonid +of RAM-UCR 1000 is elongated and the paraconid is a minute cusp; the +tooth closely resembles the m1 of the type of <i>Sinclairella dakotensis</i>.</p></div> + +<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_487" id="Page_487">[Pg 487]</a></span></p> +<h3>Logan County, northeastern Colorado</h3> + +<div class="blockquot"><p><i>Material.</i>—KU no. 11210 (fig. 1), a fragment of a left maxillary containing +P4 and M1-2.</p> + +<p><i>Locality and stratigraphy.</i>—The fossil was found in the center of the W-1/2, +Sec. 21, T 11 N, R 53 W, Logan County, Colorado, " ... in the bed below +<i>Agnotocastor</i> bed, Cedar Creek Member...."

P4 +of the type specimen of <i>Sinclairella dakotensis</i> is described (Jepsen, 1934, p. +392) as having an oval outline at the base of the crown, and a small, posterolingual +cusp. A chip of enamel is missing from the posterior slope of the main +cusp of the P4 of KU no. 11210. The anterior slope of the main cusp is +flattened, possibly the result of wear, and there is no evidence of a groove like +that present on the P4 of the type specimen.</p> + +<p>Only a few differences were found between the molars preserved in KU no. +11210 and their counterparts in the type specimen. A stylar shelf is present +labial to the metacone of M1 of KU no. 11210, but, unlike the type, its surface +is smooth and there is no evidence of cusps. Of the three small stylar +cusps on the stylar shelf of M2 the smallest is in the position of a mesostyle. +The M2 lacks a chip of enamel from the lingual surface of the hypocone. Unlike +the M2 of Princeton no. 13585, in occlusal view the posterior margin of the +M2 of KU no. 11210 is convex posterior to the metacone. The anterior edge +of the base of the zygomatic arch of KU no. 11210 was dorsal to M2. The +shallow oval depression in the maxillary dorsal to M1 might be the result of +post-mortem distortion.</p> + +<p>The molars preserved in KU no. 11210 and their counterparts in the type +specimen do not appear to be significantly different in size (table 1) or morphology +of the cusps. The only difference between the two specimens that +might be of classificatory significance is the difference in size of the posterolingual +cusp of P4. At present the range of intraspecific variation in the morphology +of P4 has not been documented for any species of apatemyid. The +evolutionary trend or trends of the apatemyids (McKenna, 1960, p. 48) for +progressive reduction of function of p4 probably were paralleled by similar +trends in the evolution of the P4. If so, the intraspecific variation in the morphology +of P4 could be expected to be somewhat greater than that of the upper +molars, for example. The morphological difference between the P4's of the +type of <i>Sinclairella dakotensis</i> and KU no. 11210 is not extreme and does not +exceed the range of intraspecific variation that could be expected for this element +of the dentition. The close resemblances in +size and morphology between the M1-2 of Princeton +no. 13585 and KU no. 11210 also favor identification +of the latter as part of a member of an +Orellan population of <i>Sinclairella dakotensis</i>.</p></div> + + +<h3>Weld County, northeastern Colorado</h3> + +<p class="figleft" style="width: 342px;"> +<img src="images/image006.png" width="342" height="375" alt="Fig. 2.

A similar notch is not present on the M2 of KU no. +11210 nor indicated in the illustrations of the M2 of Princeton no. 13585. The +coronal dimensions of UCM no. 21073 (table 1) do not appear to differ significantly +from those of the M2's of KU no. 11210 and the type specimen of +<i>Sinclairella dakotensis</i>.</p></div> + + +<h3>Comments</h3> + +<p>With the discovery of Orellan apatemyids the geochronological +range of the family in North America is shown to extend from the +Torrejonian through the Orellan land-mammal ages. The discoveries +reported here enlarge the Oligocene record of apatemyids +to include not only the type specimen of <i>Sinclairella dakotensis</i>, a +skull and associated mandible from South Dakota, but also seven +isolated teeth, representing at least two individuals, from a Chadronian +fossil locality in Nebraska and one specimen from each of +two Orellan fossil localities in northeastern Colorado. Simpson +(1944:73, and 1953:127) presented tabulations of the published records +of American apatemyids and suggested the data indicated the +populations of these mammals were of small size throughout the +history of the family. The few pre-Oligocene occurrences of apatemyids +described subsequently (note McKenna, 1960, figs. 3-10, +and p. 48) and occurrences described here tend to reinforce Simpson's +interpretation. This interpretation may have to be modified +to some degree, however, when current studies of collections of pre-Oligocene +apatemyids are completed (McKenna, personal communication).</p> + +<p>Although information concerning the evolutionary trends of American +apatemyids has been published, no data on the morphological +variation in a population are available in the literature. An adequate +basis for evaluating the significance of the morphological differences +between the P4's of Princeton no. 13585 and KU no. 12110 coupled +with the similarities of their M1-2's is lacking. In the evolution of +American apatemyids the P4 underwent reduction in size and, apparently, +curtailment of function. This history suggests the range +of morphological variation of P4 in populations of <i>Sinclairella dakotensis</i> +could be expected to be greater than that of the molars +and encompass the morphological differences between the P4's of +Princeton no. 13585 and KU no. 12110. The difference in age of +the Chadronian and Orellan fossils does not constitute proof that +they pertain to different species. Although the identification is admittedly<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_490" id="Page_490">[Pg 490]</a></span> +provisional until more fossils including other parts of the +skeleton are discovered, the Orellan fossils described here are referred +to <i>Sinclairella dakotensis</i>.</p> + + + + + +<div class="center"><span class="smcap">Table 1.—Measurements (in millimeters) of Teeth of Sinclairella<br /> +dakotensis Jepsen.</span><br /><br /> + +<table border="1" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0" summary="teeth"> +<tr><td align="left"> </td><th colspan="2">P4</th><th colspan="2">M1</th><th colspan="2">M2</th></tr> +<tr><td align="left"> </td><td align="center">length</td><td align="center">width</td><td align="center">length<a name="FNanchor_1_2" id="FNanchor_1_2"></a><a href="#Footnote_1_1" class="fnanchor">[1]</a></td><td align="center">width<a name="FNanchor_1_3" id="FNanchor_1_3"></a><a href="#Footnote_1_1" class="fnanchor">[1]</a></td><td align="center">length<a name="FNanchor_1_4" id="FNanchor_1_4"></a><a href="#Footnote_1_1" class="fnanchor">[1]</a></td><td align="center">width<a name="FNanchor_1_1" id="FNanchor_1_1"></a><a href="#Footnote_1_1" class="fnanchor">[1]</a></td></tr> +<tr><td align="left">Princeton no. 13585<a name="FNanchor_2_2" id="FNanchor_2_2"></a><a href="#Footnote_2_2" class="fnanchor">[2]</a></td><td align="center"> 2.1</td><td align="center"> 1.1</td><td align="center"> 4.0</td><td align="center"> 3.7</td><td align="center"> 3.4</td><td align="center"> 4.7</td></tr> +<tr><td align="left">RAM no. 381</td><td align="center"></td><td align="center"></td><td align="center"> 4.1</td><td align="center"> 3.5</td><td align="center"> </td><td align="center"> </td></tr> +<tr><td align="left">RAM no. 1674</td><td align="center"></td><td align="center"></td><td align="center"></td><td align="center"></td><td align="center"> 3.4</td><td align="center"> 4.2</td></tr> +<tr><td align="left">KU no. 11210</td><td align="center"> 2.4</td><td align="center"> 1.6</td><td align="center"> 3.9</td><td align="center"> 3.5</td><td align="center"> 3.8</td><td align="center"> 4.1+</td></tr> +<tr><td align="left">UCM no. 21073</td><td align="center"></td><td align="center"></td><td align="center"></td><td align="center"></td><td align="center"> 3.6</td><td align="center"> 4.1</td></tr> +<tr><td colspan="3" rowspan="2"> </td><td colspan="2">m1</td><td colspan="2">m2</td></tr> +<tr><td>length</td><td>width</td><td>length</td><td>width</td></tr> +<tr><td colspan="3" align="left">Princeton no. 13585<a name="FNanchor_3_3" id="FNanchor_3_3"></a><a href="#Footnote_3_3" class="fnanchor">[3]</a></td><td align="center"> 3.5</td><td align="center"> 2.4</td><td align="center"> 3.7</td><td align="center"> 2.8</td></tr> +<tr><td colspan="3" align="left">RAM no. 1000</td><td align="center"> 3.5</td><td align="center"> 2.2</td><td align="center"> </td><td align="center"> </td></tr> +<tr><td colspan="3" align="left">RAM no. 598</td><td align="center"></td><td align="center"></td><td align="center"> 3.8</td><td align="center"> 2.6</td></tr> +<tr><td colspan="3" align="left">RAM no. 1001</td><td align="center"></td><td align="center"></td><td align="center"> 3.6+</td><td align="center"> 2.6</td></tr> +<tr><td colspan="3" align="left">RAM no. 1079</td><td align="center"></td><td align="center"></td><td align="center"> 4.0</td><td align="center"> 2.8</td></tr> +<tr><td colspan="3" align="left">RAM no. 3013</td><td align="center"></td><td align="center"></td><td align="center"> 3.6</td><td align="center"> 2.8</td></tr> +</table></div> + + +<div class="footnote"><p><a name="Footnote_1_1" id="Footnote_1_1"></a><a href="#FNanchor_1_1"><span class="label">[1]</span></a> Length defined as maximum dimension of the labial half of the crown measured +parallel to a line drawn through the apices of paracone and metacone.
