Abstract
ABSTRACT Dental remains of the erinaceid Galerix rutlandae and a talpid attributed to the subfamily Uropsilinae are reported, the first members of these families from the Miocene Siwalik exposures of India. They come from deposits equivalent to the Chinji Formation at Ramnagar, northwestern India. Uropsilinae is recorded for the first time from the Indian subcontinent. This finding extends the spatial range of the subfamily and indicates that this immigrant reached the Indian subcontinent from the west, but could not survive past the Miocene.
