Muğla İlinin NW da ve Muğla Aydın şosesinin N de Akgedik ve Bayır köyleri arasında Dr. G. OTKUN tarafından 1942 yılında zengin ve iyi muhafaza edilmiş bir memeli hayvan mecmuası keşfedilmiş ve bir kısım bakiyeler Maden Tetkik ve Arama Enstitüsüne getirilmişti. İngilizce metninde adı geçen espeslerin incelenmesi sonunda güney Balkanlar ve Susam adası ile, en az Batı İran Ponsien Memelileri arasında senkronik bir irtibatın mevcut olması icap ettiği kanaatına varılmıştır.
