Chronology

Infobox: "Temporal range: Late Eocene–Early Miocene"

Lede: "Their fossils have been found in North America, Europe and Asia ranging in age from the Middle Eocene to the Early Oligocene, with a single genus (Cadurcotherium) surviving into the Late Oligocene in South Asia (Pakistan)."

Can we make up our minds here?— Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.233.90.196 (talk • contribs)

The latest surviving genus is apparently Metamynodon. I'm trying to find some recent papers to check if current consensus of its extinct is still in the early Miocene.--Mr Fink (talk) 15:10, 13 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Etymology

The word ἀμυνω means to defend or ward off, not to threaten. I've fixed the paraphrase given in the etymology and provided a link to a dictionary entry that verifies this translation.--76.169.126.143 (talk) 13:33, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
