-Anchomomys aff. quercyi, Necrolemur cf. antiquus, and an additional maxilla and mandible of Pseudoloris parvulus (not included in the specimen count of 9) are all in the collections of l'Université de Montpellier (Godinot 1988).

Insectivores and Chiropterans reported on by Sigé (1988) are in the collections of l'Université des Sciences et Techniques du Languedoc.
Regarding the insectivores and chiropterans (Sigé 1988): Two localities "Locus 1 and 2" are indicated for all specimens, but because they are described as "two contiguous cavities of Bretou... [that] communicated in the same karstic unit, had the same filling and same fauna" they have been entered into the general Le Bretou locality.
Taxonomic list comments:very incomplete
-The taxa listed (with specimen abundance) by Rage 1988:11647, are likely duplicates of occurrences from Sudre (1978) and are therefore listed here:
Pseudolacerta cf. mucronata (1 specimen)
Pseudolacerta cf. lamandini (1 specimen)
Psuedolacerta sp. (23 specimens)
