		elephas occidentalis from southwestern Mexico (Colima, Guerrero), the latter being distinguished from the former by the lateral thoracic horns, which are perpendicular to the axis of the body.
		elephas occidentalis is rather common within its range in southwestern Mexico, but unfortunately, there appears to have been a recent decline in the population of M.

	Elephant - LoveToKnow 1911
		As the distinctive characteristics of the sub-order, and also of the single existing genus Elephas, are given in the article Proboscidea, it will suffice to point out how the two existing species are distinguished from one another.
		The more specialized of the two species is the Indian or Asiatic elephant, Elephas maximus, specially characterized by the extreme complexity of the structure of its molar teeth, which are composed of a great number of tall and thin plates of enamel and dentine, with the intervals filled by cement (see Proboscidea, fig.
		Although some of these elephants are believed not to have been larger than donkeys, the height of others may be estimated at from 4 to 5 ft., or practically the same as that of the dwarf Congo race.

		The objective of the Spanish-Tunisian project was to carry out comparative study of the red lobster (Palinurus elephas) fisheries in the Western Mediterranean (Baleares) and the Central Mediterranean (Tunisia), with special attention to the exploitation models in the fisheries of the two countries.
		While in Tunisia most of the catches are landed in two harbours – Bizert and Tabarka – and are bought by “viveros” to be exported to European markets, in Spain lobster is landed in a myriad of small harbours where it is partially sold directly for fresh consumption locally.

	Genus Elephas or Asian elephant
		The cap of Amanita elephas is 90 - 100 mm wide, campanulate at first, then at maturity planar to plano-concave and subumbonate, with a nonstriate margin.
		Elephas is well represented at many sites; with one exception the entire Buia Elephas sample represents a relatively derived member of the Elephas recki lineage.
		Arisaema elephas is a stocky Chinese species that can supposedly grow to nearly 5' tall if well-watered and otherwise happy, but most growers report it to be much smaller, as in 2' or less.

	Digimorph - Elephas maximus (Asian elephant)
		The current geographic range of the Asian elephant, Elephas maximus, includes Indochina, Malaysia, Indonesia, southern China, and the Indian subcontinent.
		The Asian elephant, Elephas maximus, and the African elephant, Loxodontia africana are the only elephant species remaining from a once diverse group, the Proboscidea.
		The Asian elephant can be distinguished from the African form by its smaller size, smaller ears, convexly curved back, flattened forehead, and the presence of one instead of two lips on the distal end of the trunk.

		Serum samples were collected from 51 Asian elephants (Elephas maximus) and 26 African elephants (Loxodonta africana) from 16 zoos and circuses throughout the United States from February 1996 to March 1999.
		In general, the levels in animals on the 2 reserves were similar, except that the Fe and Cu concentrations were significantly higher in the animals at Kaziranga; differences in the mineral contents of the soil and the plants were suggested as a possible explanation for the variations.

	Importance of Palinurus elephas (European spiny lobster)
		Landings of Palinurus elephas have fallen since 1997 from 42 million tonnes (mt) in that year through 19 mt in 1998 to 15 mt in 1999, 2000, 2001 and 2002 (FAO, 2002).
		Total landings of Palinurus elephas in France have seen a downward trend with landings at 137, 128, 112, 104, 90, 44, 58, 59, 65 and 46 mt for the years 1993-2002 although again, no indication of effort is given.

		Despite its large size, the skull of Elephas antiquus italicus, from the Pleistocene deposit of Pignataro Interamna, Valle del Liri (Frosinone), belongs to an individual that was not yet fully developed.
		The exhibit can be considered a significant example of this species in as far as it is complete and well preserved.
		The many examples discovered in Italy are evidence of the wide distribution achieved by Elephas antiquus during the Pleistocene era, in all the Apennine fluvial valleys and in the entire South European area.

	Asian elephant (Elephas maximus)
		It was formerly called Indian elephant, which is a confusing name, since Asian elephants occur in 13 asian countries, from west India, to southern China, and in southeast from the malay peninsula to the islands Sumatra and Borneo, why "Indian" is unappropiate, and the name "Indian elephant" should be used only for the Indian subspecies.
		So when speaking about the species (Elephas maximus), this species should be refered to as Asian elephant.
		Asian elephant was once distributed from Tigris and Euphrates Valleys of Syria and Iraq to the yellow river of China and South to Sumatra (Daniel, 1995).

	Elephant Evolution: History of the order Proboscidae; From Moeritherium to Elephas and Loxodonta
		One branch evolving into Loxodonta (African elephants) and the other evolving into Elephas (Asian elephants) and Mammuthus (mammoths).
		Mammoths are probably the best known and best studied of all elephant forebearers because of well preserved, frozen carcasses found in Alaska and Siberia.
		That leads us to the three surviving proboscidean species; Loxodonta africana, Loxodonta cyclotis, and Elephas maximus.

	Heredity - Abstract of article: Population differentiation within and among Asian elephant (Elephas maximus) ...
		Southern India, one of the last strongholds of the endangered Asian elephant (Elephas maximus), harbours about one-fifth of the global population.
		We present here the first population genetic study of free-ranging Asian elephants, examining within- and among-population differentiation by analysing mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and nuclear microsatellite DNA differentiation across the Nilgiris-Eastern Ghats, Anamalai, and Periyar elephant reserves of southern India.
		These results variably indicate the importance of population bottlenecks, social organization, and biogeographic barriers in shaping the distribution of genetic variation among Asian elephant populations in southern India.

		There are no conclusive osteological evidences for this; on the one hand the skull exhibits paedomorphic features and it is strongly modified in comparison with the Elephas antiquus skull, on the other hand the very simplified molar morphology does not exclude a phylogenetic relationship with the Palaeoloxodon line.
