The first real Oligocene fauna is that of the marls of Ronzon (13) in the Rhone valley near Lyons, which succeeds the fauna of the gypse or Ludian, and contains the new Oligocene mammals. Of the same age are the mam- mals of Hempstead (24) (Isle of Wight), of Lobsann (18) (Alsace), Calaf and Tarrega (25, 26) (Spain) numerous deposits in Swabia (19-23), and possibly of Monte Promina in Dalmatia (27). The mammals of this stage are of three kinds: (1) those descended from the Upper Eocene fauna of Europe; (2) those of fresh north or south Asiatic origin or previously undiscovered; (3) those apparently from ' Deperet, L'evolution des Mammif^res tertiaircs; Timportance des migrations (Oligo- cene).
