From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Articles relating to the Allotheria, an extinct branch of successful Mesozoic mammals. The most important characteristic was the presence of lower molariform teeth equipped with two longitudinal rows of cusps.[1] Allotheria includes Multituberculata, Gondwanatheria (which may be part of Multituberculata, as the sister group to Cimolodonta),[2][3][4][5] and probably Haramiyida,[6] although some studies show them to be more basal mammaliaforms rather than true mammals, therefore differing from true allotheres significantly.[7][8]
