Several genera/species of the family are known to contain alkaloids. In this study, positive results were obtained on testing Exocar-pos aphylla, Rhoiacarpos capensis, Thesium australe (1/2), T. hystrix (1/2), T. lanciulatum, T. magalismontanum, and T. virgatum.

Judged from the evolutionary stage of the Allophaiomys of the locality, the fauna is somewhat older than locality no. 2. Noteworthy is the first occurrence of the lemming Lemmas sp.) in the animal assemblage, and as far as Europe is concerned, the rich finds of the two species of crested porcupine (Hystrix).

Gnawing of Hystrix (crested porcupine) on the horse bones is clearly recognizable. The following small-vertebrate finds, with numbers of specimens, have been recovered from the washing samples (mainly from layer no. 3, species from other layers marked by asterisks) ... 

The crested Porcupine Hystrix), as an index fossil , substantiates the allocation of two more faunal assemblages of lesser importance to the Varboian stage. One of these is from the Biikk Mountains. A collection of a few bones was found in old collections of the Department of Palaeontology of the Hungarian Natural History Museum. According to the specimen labels, the bones were collected in 1936 by... 

The stratigraphical position of this modest faunal assemblage, because of the presence of alpine elements together with Hystrix, is identified as the upper part of the Varbdian substage as were the Upper Pleistocene horizons of Tarkd and the Poroslyuk of Ballavolgy. 

Finally, I mention only in passing that Hystrix vinogradovi remains have been found in the Kiskevelyi cave in the vicinity of Budapest. Since Hillebrand, who researched the cave, did not collect by layers, we may say only that in all probability these remains have been found in the lower, brown layers. I identified remains of Asinus hydruntinus (Regalia) from subsequent excavations made by Vertes in 1955.
