The Cenozoic Vertebrate Fossils from the Nepal Himalaya: A Review

This information is very important to understand the evolution of vertebrate fauna as well as the climate in which they were living during and after the collision of the Indian subcontinent to Eurasian continent. This paper gives a review of the landmark contribution which has been made by different authors on this aspect. J. Nat. Hist. Mus. Vol. 27, 2013: 120-131
