Found at Henry's Fork Divide.
This may eventually prove to be a species of _Telmatherium_, (Marsh);
but the description given by him of that genus is so brief and
uncharacteristic that it might apply to any of the allied genera.
Indeed, Dr. Leidy has regarded it as a synonym of _Palæosyops_.
HYRACHYUS, Leidy.
Proc. Ac. Nat. Sc., 1871, p. 229, _et seq_.
A genus of tapiroid mammals, which is thus defined: "_Lower Jaw:_
Third molar with two crests; four premolars, third and fourth with
one transverse and one longitudinal crest. _Upper Jaw:_ Seven molars,
first without interior heel; premolars with two transverse crests."
(Cope.)
