The stratigraphic range of the subfamily extends from the Chadronian (early Oligocene) to the Clarendonian (middle Pliocene); geographically, the subfamily ranges from the northern Great Plains (South Dakota, Nebraska, Wyoming) southward to Texas and into Panama. The Protoceratinae now include four genera: Heteromeryx, Pseudoprotoceras, Protoceras, and Paratoceras. Calops Marsh is here synonymized with Protoceras; specific synonymies within each genus are also treated. Two new species of Protoceras are recognized: P. skinneri from South Dakota and Nebraska and P. neatodelpha from Wyoming. New skull and horn material allows an expanded description and diagnosis of Paratoceras, and a new species, P. wardi, from the Barstovian of the Texas Gulf Coastal Plain is erected"--P. 351.20728559 bytesapplication/pdfen-USQH1 .A4 vol.150, art.4, 1973Protoceratinae.Protoceratidae.Artiodactyla, Fossil -- North America.Mammals, Fossil -- North America.Paleontology -- Tertiary -- North America.Paleontology -- North America.The Protoceratinae (Mammalia, Tylopoda, Protoceratidae) and the systematics of the Protoceratidae.
