... crown area). It is reasonable to assume that tooth shape, a multivariate trait, reflects important additional aspects of tooth form and function. Here we present the results of a geometric morphometric analysis of the lower dentition of the Paleocene-Eocene condylarth species Ectocion osbornianus...

...Marisol Montellano-Ballesteros; Richard C. Fox; Craig S. Scott A large collection of dentigerous jaws quarried from the Gao Mine locality, late Paleocene, Paskapoo Formation, central Alberta, Canada, documents a new species of the early Paleogene phenacodontid “condylarth” Ectocion Cope, 1882...

... section. Nevertheless, dinosaurian extinction was not necessarily "catastrophic" within a biologically relevant interval. Primitive condylarths appear locally above the highest known dinosaurs, probably as immigrants. At least in this part of the North American western interior, the first evolutionary...

..., and ? Notoparamys blochi new species) are included in the Fossil Butte assemblage. Also recorded are late occurrences of two hyopsodontid condylarths and an early occurrence of a rare phenacodontid condylarth. The relatively high abundances of equids and notharctines suggest that vertebrate samples were derived...

... of the multituberculate Mesodma ( M. ambigua, M. formosa , and M. hensleighi ), the cimolodont Cimexomys minor , the marsupial Thylacodon montanensis , and four species of archaic ungulate (or ‘condylarth’), including Protungulatum donnae , Oxyprimus sp., Baioconodon nordicus , and Maiorana sp. The presence of P. donnae...

... of mammals, which is not an inconsiderable diversity. The provisional faunal list includes a new hyaenodontid creodont, a small ( P. escuilliei ) and a large ( Daouitherium rebouli ) proboscidean, the two “condylarths” Abdounodus hamdii (cf. Mioclaneidae) and Ocepeia daouiensis (cf. Phenacodonta), and two...

...-contemporaneously with the Dormaal Sand deposits. One of the most remarkable features of these faunas is the dominance in all the samples of dental micro-remains of the condylarth genus Paschatherium . Here we study the features and distribution of Paschatherium species and discuss the significance of their acme...

... evolutionary history for Ptilodontidae that may have extended into the Late Cretaceous. Aenigmamys is part of a new mammalian fauna from southwestern Alberta, the taxonomic composition of which includes a diversity of multituberculates, cimolestans, primates, and condylarths. The fauna correlates with those...

E. collinus; cimolestids Acmeodon hyoni and Gelastops sp.; pantolestids...

.... The abundance and diversity of tapirs and plagiomenids (both rare elements in midlatitude faunas), and the absence of artiodactyls, early horses, and the hyopsodontid “condylarth” Hyopsodus (well represented at midlatitude localities) are peculiar to the Eocene Arctic. The Eocene Arctic macrofloras reveal...

... Platymastus palantir , previously considered to be a loxolophine arctocyonid, is probably a junior synonym of B. prisca and as such reveals the upper molar morphology of this taxon. Ellipsodon is highly derived relative to other mioclaenid condylarths. It has a reduced mesial dentition, with the probable loss...

... primate is documented by two fragmentary lower molars and characterized by a well-marked bunodonty and a large paraconid ; this form differs from contemporaneous anthropoids but is very similar to Altiatlasius from the Thanetian of the Adrar Mgorn 1. Two “condylarths” evoke European taxa; a M 3...
