Daeodon shoshonensis life restoration Daeodon (Dinohyus) hollandi, complete skeleton from the Agate Springs Fossil Quarry in Nebraska. See text for nomenclature history. Daeodon is an extinct genus of entelodont even-toed ungulates that inhabited North America about 29 to 15.97 million years ago during the latest Oligocene and earliest Miocene.
Necrolestes ("grave robber" or "thief of the dead") is an extinct genus of mammals, which lived during the Early Miocene in what is now Argentine Patagonia.It is the most recent known genus of Meridiolestida, an extinct group of mammals more closely related to therians (marsupials and placentals) than to monotremes, which were the dominant mammals in South America during the Late Cretaceous.
The site is best known for a large number of well-preserved Miocene fossils, many of which were found at dig sites on Carnegie and University Hills.Fossils from the Harrison Formation and Anderson Ranch Formation, which date to the Arikareean in the North American land mammal classification, about 20 to 16.3 million years ago, are among some of the best specimens of Miocene mammals.
The dabbling duck Matanas enrightii remains poorly known as only a few fossils have been found. [1] Palaelodids are ancient relatives of flamingos. The new species from St Bathans (Palaelodus aotearoa) is smaller than, and morphologically distinct from, the Late Oligocene-Early Miocene Palaelodus wilsoni from Australia. [19]
Different regression models produce a wide range of body mass estimates for Simbakubwa kutokaafrika: from a low estimate of 280 kg (620 lb), based on an equation derived from the m3 length of various large carnivorans, comparable to the largest lions, to an upper estimate possibly reaching up to 1,308 and 1,554 kg (2,884 and 3,426 lb), based on equations derived from carnassial length of ...
