摘要: 系统记述了广西崇左三合大洞巨猿动物群中的反刍类:湖麂(Muntiacus lacustris)、凤岐祖鹿(?)相似种(Cervavitus? cf.C.fenqii)、云南黑鹿(Cervus(R.)yunnanensis)、广西巨羊(Megalovis guangxiensis)、山羊亚科属种未定(Caprinae gen.et sp.indet.)和大额牛未定种(Bos(Bibos)sp.)。与其他相关的早更新世动物群中的反刍类相比, 它们与柳城巨猿洞和田东么会洞的最相似。三合大洞的反刍类在组合上反映早更新世的时代特征及湿热的森林-草丛生态环境。这种环境非常适宜诸如巨猿这类高等灵长类的栖息。

Abstract: The ruminants associated with Gigantopithecus fossils unearthed from the Sanhe Cave are systematically described. The identified taxa are as follow: Muntiacus lacustris, Cervavitus? cf. C. fenqii, Cervus(R.) yunnanensis, Megalovis guangxiensis, Caprinae gen.et sp.indet.,Bos(Bibos) sp. These fauna are most similar to those from the Gigantopithecus cave in Liucheng and Mohui Cave in Tiandong, Guangxi Autonomous Region. And these fossils confirm an Early Pleistocene age and an environment of a tropical bushy and forested environment favorable for habitation of high primates such as Gigantopithecus.
