摘要
An upper right molar of Elephas is described from the sandy-silty mudstone containing small pebbles immediately overlying the Boulder Conglomerate Formation of the Upper Siwalik Subgroup of Jammu, exposed 500 m north of Kharian Village and 10 km south of Jammu City. Based on the dental morphological parameters, it is tentatively referred to Elephas cf. E. maximus indicus. A brief discussion on distribution and age of this Elephas is also presented.
