Sur un fragment d'os d'Halitherium portant des traces d'incisions.
Bull. Soc. Géol. France (2)28: 265-268. Pl. 2. Read Sept. 7, 1871.
–Describes a radius-ulna fragment with scars of shark teeth, and reports other occurrences of such scars on "Halitherium" bones from the Middle Miocene of France. At that time it was thought possible that such scars might be the work of humans, but Farge, while not ruling this out, considers the shark hypothesis the most likely one.
