New Vertebrates of the Brochero Formation (Córdoba, Argentina): A Review of the Pliocene of Central Argentina

The “Horizonte Brocherense” sensu Castellanos was created on the basis of a mammal assemblage recovered from the San Alberto Valley and Los Reartes Valley (Córdoba, Argentina). This mammal association was placed in the “Uquian Stage” (early Pliocene) according to the stratigraphic scheme proposed by...
