Cercamoniinae
Cercamoniinae is a subfamily within the extinct primate family Notharctidae primarily found in Europe, although a few genera have been found in North America and Africa. Classification *Family Notharctidae Notharctidae is an extinct family of adapiform primate Primates are a diverse order of mammals.

Pronycticebus
''Pronycticebus'' was a genus of adapiformes primates that lived during the middle to middle late Eocene. It is represented by two species, ''Pronycticebus gaudryi'' and ''Pronycticebus neglectus'', of which an almost complete specimen was found in Germany, and the Quercy Phosphorites Formation of France. Morphology ''Pronycticebus neglectus'' possessed what appears to be a grooming claw on the second digit of each foot like modern strepsirhines (Fleagle, 1999) and had a dental formula of 2:1:4:3. ''Pronycticebus neglectus'' has a petrosal bulla and a postorbital bar. ''Pronycticebus neglectus'' may have been a nocturnal or a crepuscular species, which is suggested by a relatively large orbital size. ''Pronycticebus neglectus'' has a relatively large baculum for a species of its size, which had an average body mass of 825 grams. Range ''Pronycticebus neglectus'' lived in Europe. Locomotion Based upon limb morphology, ''Pronycticebus neglectus'' moved by quadrupedalism, leaping ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Eocene
The Eocene ( ) Epoch is a geological epoch (geology), epoch that lasted from about 56 to 33.9 million years ago (mya). It is the second epoch of the Paleogene Period (geology), Period in the modern Cenozoic Era (geology), Era. The name ''Eocene'' comes from the Ancient Greek (''ēṓs'', "dawn") and (''kainós'', "new") and refers to the "dawn" of modern ('new') fauna that appeared during the epoch. The Eocene spans the time from the end of the Paleocene Epoch to the beginning of the Oligocene Epoch. The start of the Eocene is marked by a brief period in which the concentration of the carbon isotope Carbon-13, 13C in the atmosphere was exceptionally low in comparison with the more common isotope Carbon-12, 12C. The end is set at a major extinction event called the ''Grande Coupure'' (the "Great Break" in continuity) or the Eocene–Oligocene extinction event, which may be related to the impact of one or more large bolides in Popigai impact structure, Siberia and in what is now ...

Prehistoric Strepsirrhines
Prehistory, also known as pre-literary history, is the period of human history between the use of the first stone tools by hominins 3.3 million years ago and the beginning of recorded history with the invention of writing systems. The use of symbols, marks, and images appears very early among humans, but the earliest known writing systems appeared 5000 years ago. It took thousands of years for writing systems to be widely adopted, with writing spreading to almost all cultures by the 19th century. The end of prehistory therefore came at very different times in different places, and the term is less often used in discussing societies where prehistory ended relatively recently. In the early Bronze Age, Sumer in Mesopotamia, the Indus Valley Civilisation, and ancient Egypt were the first civilizations to develop their own scripts and to keep historical records, with their neighbors following. Most other civilizations reached the end of prehistory during the following Iron Age. ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
