安徽繁昌孙村镇癞痢山人字洞发现的貘化石,是迄今我国所报道的更新世早期此类材料中相对丰富和保存最完整的,不仅有部分头骨和完整上、下齿列,而且有大多数头后骨骼.这批材料对了解我国更新世早期貘类的形态特征及演化水平有着参照样板的作用.在形态特征方面,这批材料与我国早更新世的山原貘（Tapirus sanyuanensis）最接近,可归入该种.繁昌材料对区分早更新世貘类与现生马来貘（Tapirus indicus）提供了更充分的依据.就目前发现的材料而言,山原貘与中国貘（Tapirus sinensis）仅局限于早更新世,而华南巨貘（Megatapirus augustus）生存于中、晚更新世.在起源方面,巨貘与我国早更新世貘类的关系比与马来貘的关系更为接近.
The fossils found in the dioscoreae of Dioscorea nipponica in Suncun Town, Fanchang, Anhui Province are the most abundant and well-preserved of these materials reported in our country so far, not only in partial skulls and complete upper and lower dentitions, but also in large Most of the posterior head bones.These materials have a reference model for understanding the morphological characteristics and evolutionary level of the early Pleistocene in China.From the morphological characteristics, these materials are the closest to the Early Pleistocene Tapirus sanyuanensis , Which can be classified into this species, and Fanchang materials provide a more sufficient basis for distinguishing between the Early Pleistocene and Tapirus indicus. For the currently discovered materials, the species of Tapirus sinensis and Tapirus sinensis, Only limited to the early Pleistocene, while the Megatapirus augustus lived in the middle and late Pleistocene, and in terms of its origin, the relationship between the giant tiger and the Early Pleists in China was closer than the relationship with Malayu.
