    摘要:

    在太行山东麓井陉县首次发现了三趾马动物群,该动物群至少包括食肉目(猫科Felidae gen. et sp. indet.和鬣狗科Hyaenidae gen. et sp. indet.)、奇蹄目(林氏列角犀Dihoplus ringstroemi和平齿三趾马Sivalhippus platyodus)、偶蹄目(原河猪Propotamochoerus sp.、弓颌猪Chleuastochoerus sp.、山西兽Schansitherium sp.、古麟Palaeotragus sp.、羊羚Dorcadoryx sp.、高庄羚羊Gazella gaozhuangensis和似葛氏羚羊G. cf. gaudryi)等,显示其时代可与山西榆社盆地高庄组桃阳段相对比,为晚中新世晚期至上新世最早期,约6.0-5.2 Ma,大致对应于MN 13后段。由于该化石地点覆于唐县期夷平面上,显示了该夷平面的隆升时段当不早于上新世。另一方面,动物群面貌指示了一个与现代迥异的开放的、温暖湿润的森林草原环境。

    Abstract:

    Objectives: The uplift of the Taihang Mountains in the late Cenozoic signals the primary formation of modern landforms in North China, but there are still many different opinions on its development. Paleontological evidence can play an essential role in the study of the uplift of the Taihang Mountains. Methods: The newly discovered Jingxing Hipparion fauna was excavated from the alluvial-fluvial fan on the Tangxian planation surface at the east piedmont of the Taihang Mountains, including Felidae gen. et sp. indet., Hyaenidae gen. et sp. indet., Dihoplus ringstroemi, Sivalhippus platyodus, Propotamochoerus sp., Chleuastochoerus sp., Schansitherium sp., Palaeotragus sp., Dorcadoryx sp., Gazella gaozhuangensis and G. cf. gaudryi. Results: The Hipparion fauna was discovered firstly in the east piedmont of the Taihang Mountains. Biochronological observation of this fauna implies an age of latest Miocene to earliest Pliocene (about 6.0-5.2 Ma) or late MN 13, correlated to Taoyang member of Gaozhuang Formation in the Yueshe Basin of Shanxi Province. Conclusions: Since the fauna was excavated from the redclay on the Tangxian planation surface, it is concluded that the uplift of this surface was not earlier than Early Pliocene. Additionally, the fauna composition indicates an open forest and grassland environment which is entirely different from nowadays.
