A comprehensive systematic review of the fossil rhinoceroses of North America, tracing their evolutionary history over some 35 million years, from their first appearance during the Eocene to their extinction on the continent. North American rhinoceroses diversified into an extraordinary range of forms, from relatively small, long-legged animals to massive, short-legged, hippopotamus-like species, occupying a wide variety of ecological niches.Provides detailed taxonomic accounts of the North American Rhinocerotidae, with descriptions, measurements and illustrations of fossil skeletal material, including skulls, dentition and postcranial bones. Examines their classification, geographical distribution, evolutionary relationships, biogeography and palaeoecology, and their significance in reconstructing the changing environments and mammalian faunas of Cenozoic North America.Extensively illustrated with 325 black-and-white figures, including photographs, anatomical drawings and maps.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. First appearing about 40 million years ago in North America, rhinoceroses diversified into an incredible array of taxa, with a variety of ecologies that don't resemble any of the five living species. They ranged from delicate long-legged dog-sized forms, to huge hippo-like forms that apparently lived in rivers and lakes. Including a complete systematic review, and discussions of biogeography, evolution and paleoecology, this book summarizes our current knowledge of North American rhinos and constitutes the most complete reference available. Rhinoceroses first appeared in North America about forty million years ago, diversifying into an incredible array of taxa, many bearing no resemblance to the five living species. This important reference provides a full systematic review of North American Rhinocerotidae, as well as discussions of biogeography, evolutionary patterns and their paleoecological significance.
