四川有蹄动物区系形成的探讨

对四川有蹄动物现生种和化石种进行了比较，认为四川现今属东洋界的西南区和华中区有蹄动物区系是第三世纪上新世至第四纪中，晚更新世大熊猫－剑齿象动物群的发展和继续，属古北界的青藏高原区，相当于晚更新世的北方动物群。同时还讨论了四川有蹄动物的兴衰演替与地理迁移，以及横断山脉对有蹄动物的保存分化和扩散的特殊意义。

The evidence of fossil carbon isotopes of the climatic event at the beginning of Quaternary

Tooth enamel of mammalian fossils can efficiently preserve the original carbon isotopic mposition when they lived. The ungulate fossils, especially equids in the early Early Pleistocene Bajiazui fauna from Qingyang, Gansu are studied. According to the enriched relation of carbon isotopes between mammalian tooth enamel and grass diets, the fractions of C₃ and C₄ plants in this region at that time are reconstructed, which indicates that C₃ grass occupied a dominant position. Because C₃ grass adapts itself to cold and clamp climates, cur analytic results show that the time of the Bajiazui fauna was in a critical state between a glacial stage beginning and a summer monsoon retreat, and it was a reflection to the turning cold event of the global climate at the beginning of the Quaternary.
