The described material consists of the isolated upper cheek teeth and reflects all morphological features of Sivalhippus cf. theobaldi and Hipparion sp. Sivalhippus cf. theobaldi comprises two well preserved specimens and Hipparion sp. comprises four well preserved specimens. Sivalhippus cf. theobaldi is a large species with less complicated enamel plications whereas Hipparion sp. is moderate in size with more complicated enamel plications.
