Sur la reconstitution d'un squelette de Felsinotherium Serresi, sirénien pliocène des sables de Montpellier.
C.R. Acad. Sci. Paris 158: 1858-1862. 1 fig.
–Discusses the anatomy of F. Serresi, comparing it with other fossil sirs., and concludes that a steady increase in body size took place in a phyletic series from "Metaxytherium" [i.e., Halitherium] Christoli, M. Krahuletzi, and/or Halianassa Studeri, through F. Serresi, to F. Forestii and possibly Rhytina. M. fossile [= M. medium], however, is excluded from this lineage on account of its large size.
