Devries Multidisciplinarias (Ciencias Sociales) Plio Perú Mammalia Atiquipa Camelidae We report the oldest record of the genus Palaeolama in Peru; its constitutes one of theoldest records for the genus in South America. The shape and size of the fossil material iscomparable to South American forms P. (Hemiauchenia) paradoxa and the smallest forms of P.(Palaeolama) weddellii. The bones were found within unnamed littoral marine deposits nearAtiquipa, on the south coast of Peru. The occurrence of the extinct bivalve mollusk, Chlamysvidali, at the base of the section and coquinas of exclusively extant mollusks in the highest marineterrace capping the section indicates an age of about two million years.
