Fossil marine mammals from the Miocene Calvert Formation of Maryland and Virginia. 3. New species of extinct Miocene Sirenia.
U.S. Natl. Mus. Bull. 247(3): 65-98. Figs. 32-38. Pls. 33-43.
–Reviews the Miocene Sirenia of the U.S. Atlantic coast; describes Metaxytherium calvertense, n.sp. (71-90), from the Middle Miocene of Maryland; discusses Felsinotherium alleni (new combination; 91) and M. manigaulti from the ?Miocene of South Carolina (91-92); describes M. ortegense, n.sp. (93-94), from the ?Upper Miocene of Colombia. The new combination Felsinotherium ortegense is inadvertently created as a lapsus for M. ortegense (pl. 36). Gives useful reviews of the usage of the names Halianassa, Metaxytherium, Felsinotherium, and many specific names. Considers Hemicaulodon Cope a sir., though it is actually a walrus (see C. E. Ray, 1975). Fixes the type species of Metaxytherium by restriction as M. medium (= M. cuvieri) (70), and inadvertently designates a lectotype for Halianassa studeri (69, pl. 43; see Domning, 1987b).
