Resumen

En el Prólogo, el entonces director, Teodoro Flores, apunta que éste es el primer estudio publicado por el Instituto referente a paleontología del Cenozoico continental. Es una colaboración del Instituto Tecnológico de California, y consiste en la tesis doctoral del autor, que trata sobre la línea de evolución de los caballos actuales. La fauna de Yepómera incluye cuatro especies de équidos, una de las cuales, Pliohippus (Pliohippus) mexicanus, se considera como el más probable ancestro en el Hemphilliano del actual Equus.
