The Pleistocene Elephants of Santa Rosa Island, California

Abstract

W. G. Blunt's discovery of fossil teeth of an elephant on Santa Rosa Island, one of the Channel Islands off the coast of southern California, was recorded by Stearns in 1873. Since that time this interesting and significant occurrence has been referred to by several authors. Hay has recently summarized the available information and recognizes the presence of Elephas imperator and of an undetermined species.
