摘要：

The five specimens of Miotragocerus gluten were collected from the Lower Siwalik outcrops nearby the villages Chabbar Sayadan and Phadial in Punjab, Pakistan. The newly discovered specimens include the two horn cores and isolated teeth. Miotragocerus gluten is the medium-sized bovids, having brachydont to the sub-hypsodont type of dentition. The cusps are elevated, and the crown is surrounded by a rugose enamel layer. The present study reveals the abundance of bovids in the middle Miocene deposits which indicates a grassland ecosystem in this area.
