Telmatheriina

Telmatheres (subtribeTelmatheriina) were a group of derived (advanced) brontotheres. Telmatheres were medium-sized to large brontotheres, found in Middle Eocene deposits in North America and East Asia. Telmatheres were close relatives of the horned brontotheres, and include the largest known brontotheres without horns. It is unclear if the telmatheres form a monophyletic group (i.e. a clade), since the positions of some genera vary between phylogenetic analyses.
