Abstract: An assemblage Of vertebrate remains is collected from Wuyun Cave,Tiandong County,Guangxi Province.It contains the following species:Neotetracus cf.N.sinensis, Soriculus sp., Crocidura sp ., Anourosorex sp., Scotomanes sp.,Hipposideros sp.Macaca sp.Prebytis sp. 1~2,Pongo pygmaeus weidenreichi, Sciurotamias sp., Callosciurus sp. Belomvs sp., Typhlomys cinereus, Atherurus cf. A. macrourus,Hystnx subcnstata,Mus cf.M. Pahari, Hapalomys delacouri, Chiropodomys cf. C. gliroides,Leopoldamys sp., Niviventer sp. 1~3, Rattus sp., Cuon cf. C. jacanicus antiquus , Arctonyx collaris , Ursus thibetanus, Ailuropoda melanoleuca baconi, Felis tigirs, Felis pardus, Felis teilhardi, Paradoxurus sp., Stegodon orientalis, Elephas maximus, Tapirus sinensis, Megatapirus augustus, Rhinoceros sinensis, Sus scrofa, ? Muntiacus sp., Cervus sp. I -e 2, Capricornis sumatraensis, Bovinae gen. et sp. indet. and Alligator cf. A. sinensis. The Wuyun Cave assemblage should belong to a typical Ailuropoda- Stegodon Fauna from South China based on its composition. The age seems to be not so early as Early Pleistocene because of lacking of ancient elements, such as Ailuropoda microta, Tapirus peii, Stegodon preorientalis etc . Generally, this fauna is comparable in age with those of Late Pleistocene from South China. H0Mever, some slightly primitive features of Paradoxurus sp., Typhlomys cinereus and Tapirus sinensis indicate an earlier age, which is of Middle Pleistocene or early late Pleistocene. Judging from the analysis of habitat type of different animals, the environment should be subtropical-tropical climate with forest, open ground and water bodies.
