• The rich Siwalik fossil record presents a detailed history of the Miocene small mammal fauna of the Indian Subcontinent. We argue that productive localities reflect paleocommunity composition rather well, and we analyze individual well-sampled sites to study changes in past communities. We see evidence for high Miocene species richness, particularly between 14 and 13 Ma, and late Miocene decline in richness as part of major late Miocene faunal restructuring. The peak in number of species recorded in later middle Miocene localities is greater than that observed in most ecosystems today, and may indicate generally greater species richness than is typical at present. The Siwalik fossil record becomes increasingly informative for diverse research questions in paleobiology as a result of its growing, robust data set.
