title: New discoveries of fossil primates from the type Torrejonian (Middle Paleocene of New Mexico).
abstract: For the first time in almost 30 years, new Middle Paleocene primate specimens have been discovered in the San Juan Basin, New Mexico. They are from the 'Pantolambda zone' in the type area, Arroyo Torrejon, and are referable to Palaechthon woodi and Torrejonia wilsoni. The only other known association of these two species is in the Shotgun Local Fauna from Wyoming.
