M. meridionalis : ウィキペディア英語版 | Mammuthus meridionalis
''Mammuthus meridionalis'', or the southern mammoth, is an extinct species of mammoth endemic to Europe and central Asia from the Gelasian stage of the Early Pleistocene, living from 2.5–1.5 mya.〔(PaleoBiology Database: ''Mammuthus meridionalis'', basic info )〕 ==Description==
With a shoulder height of about and an estimated weight of tonnes, ''M. meridionalis'' is one of the largest proboscideans to have ever lived, along with other larger species of mammoth, and the earlier ''Deinotherium''. Another estimate gives a shoulder height of and a weight of . It had robust twisted tusks, common of mammoths. Its molars had low crowns and a small number of thick enamel ridges, adapted to a woodland diet of leaves and shrubs; this indicates it lived on a relatively warm climate, which makes it more probable that it lacked dense fur.
