Notoungulata
Notoungulata is an extinct order of ungulates that inhabited South America from the early Paleocene to the end of the Pleistocene, living from approximately 61 million to 11,000 years ago. Notoungulates were morphologically diverse, with forms resembling animals as disparate as rabbits and rhinoceroses. Notoungulata are the largest group of South American native ungulates, with over 150 genera in 14 families having been described, divided into two major subgroupings, Typotheria and Toxodontia. Notoungulates first diversified during the Eocene. Their diversity declined from the late Neogene onwards, with only the large Toxodontidae, toxodontids persisting until the end of the Pleistocene (with ''Mixotoxodon'' expanding into Central America and southern North America), perishing as part of the Late Pleistocene extinctions, Late Pleistocene megafauna extinctions along with most other large mammals across the Americas. Collagen sequence analysis suggests that notoungulates are closely ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Notohippidae
Notohippidae is a paraphyly, paraphyletic extinct Family (biology), family of Notoungulata, notoungulate mammals from South America. Notohippids are known from the Eocene and Oligocene Epoch (reference date), epochs.McKenna, Malcolm C., and Bell, Susan K. 1997. ''Classification of Mammals Above the Species Level.'' Columbia University Press, New York, 631 pp. Description Although the name notohippids means "southern horses," these animals did not resemble horses. The name refers to their teeth, which were very similar to those of horses, featuring sharp incisors and high-crowned molars suitable for shredding grass. The shape of the skull and, particularly, the dentition is the result of convergent evolution with the equids, perissodactyl mammals that developed on the northern continents. The body of notohippids was rather stocky, supported by relatively elongated legs equipped with claws (and not hooves). The earliest forms of notohippids possessed low-crowned molars, but over ...

Rosendo Pascuali
''Rosendo'' is an extinct genus of notohippid notoungulates that lived during the Early Oligocene in what is now Argentina and Chile. Fossils of this genus have been found in the Sarmiento Formation and the Abanico Formations of Argentina and Chile. Description ''Rosendo'' was approximately the size of a goat, albeit with a more robust build. It had a heavy and sturdy skull, with a relatively short muzzle. The dentition was characterized by high-crowned (hypsodont) incisors, posterior premolars and molars. The teeth lacked cementum. The upper incisors were slightly protruding forward. The third upper incisor was wider than the other two, while the fourth premolar was more molariform than the other premolars, but devoid of a distinct hypocone. The upper molars had hypocones, with a variable but generally deep fissure separating them from the protocones. The fissure was blocked by the medial projection of a hooked structure. Apart from the permanent major fossa, the other fossae ar ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Bishop Of Iria Flavia
Iria Flavia or simply Iria in Galicia, northwestern Spain, is an ancient settlement and former bishopric in the modern municipality of Padrón, which remains a Catholic titular see. History Located at the confluence of the Sar and Ulla rivers, Iria was a port city, the main seat of the Celtic Capori tribe, on the road between Braga and Astorga. The Romans rebuilt the road as ''via XVIII'' or ''Via Nova'' and refounded the Gallaecian port as ''Iria Flavia'' ("Flavian Iria") to compliment Roman emperor Vespasian. King Juan Carlos of Spain granted the illustrious resident and writer Camilo José Cela the title of '' Marqués de Iria Flavia''. Ecclesiastical history No later than 561, perhaps from 400 AD, Iria was the seat of a bishopric, also known in Latin as Locus Sancti Iacobi ('place of Saint James', in Spanish Santiago), that became a suffragan of the (Portuguese) Metropolitan of the Archdiocese of Braga and shared its seat with (Santiago de) Compostela, which develope ...
