Miocene and Pliocene artiodactyls, Texas Gulf Coastal Plain
Miocene sedimentary rocks along the Texas Coastal Plain provide a record of successive mammalian faunas unsurpassed anywhere in the Gulf and Atlantic coastal provinces. This is only record outside of western North America ad consequently affords a basis for detailed comparison of faunas with those of the High Plains. Texas fauna show many similarities to those from the Great Plains region, but differ in relative abundance of taxa and, partially, in their faunal association.
