Macrauchenia

A notable example of the former circumstance is offered by macrauchenia -- a hoofed animal, which was at first supposed to be a kind of great llama ❋ St. George Mivart (N/A)

Now, the macrauchenia, from the first relics of it which were found, {110} was thought to belong, as has been said, to the even-toed division. ❋ St. George Mivart (N/A)

Among the species whose bones were found were the macrauchenia, tiger, horse, and mylodon. ❋ Unknown (1916)

Among the ungulates of native origin was the long-necked, high-standing macrauchenia, shaped something like a huge, humpless camel or giraffe, and with a short proboscis. ❋ Unknown (1916)

It was he who made the extraordinary discovery in a Patagonian cave of the still fresh fragments of skin and other remains of the mylodon, the aberrant horse known as the onohipidium, the huge South American tiger, and the macrauchenia, all of them extinct animals. ❋ Unknown (1914)

Mivart then asks (and this is his second objection), if natural selection be so potent, and if high browsing be so great an advantage, why has not any other hoofed quadruped acquired a long neck and lofty stature, besides the giraffe, and, in a lesser degree, the camel, guanaco, and macrauchenia? ❋ Unknown (1909)

To these were now added the _Mylodon Darwinii_, a giant sloth; the scelidotherium, a somewhat smaller form; the great camel-like, yet odd-toed, macrauchenia; and the toxodon, as large as a hippopotamus, yet having a strange resemblance to the little rodents. ❋ Unknown (1870)
