The late Cenozoic formations (Pliocene-Pleistocene) distributed in the Kinki District, Central Honsyu, ]apan have attracted attentions of ]apanese geologists with bearing many fossil elephants and plant remains. The fossi1 elephants are frequently found also from the bottom sediments of Osaka Bay, the Setouchi Inland Sea (Setonaikai) and their vicinities. In the present work, a1110calities of these fossil elephants hitherto been known in the Kinki district are exarnined and the stratigraphic succession of these elephantbearing horizons are summerized. The writers wish to express their sincere thanks to Professor Emeritus ]. MAKIYAMA and Assistant Professor T. KAMEI of th.e University of Kyoto for their valuable suggestions. Thanks are also due to Mr. Y. TSUTSUI, the ex-director of Osaka Museum of Natural History for his kind encouragements to this study.
