Timing arguments and current theories of galaxy evolution are used to calculate the maximum cosmological redshift Zmax below which quasars first formed in the nuclei of galaxies. On the assumption that the mass density of the universe is dominated by massive neutrinos ≡10 eV of density Ων ≡ 1 (Einstein-de Sitter cosmology), it is found that galaxies first formed at redshift Zf ≡ 10, whereas luminous (≡1048erg s-1) quasars formed first in cD galaxies at Z ⪉ Zmax ≡ 5. For a dust-free universe, the space density of high-redshift quasars would show a real decrease at redshifts Z > 4.7.
