Carolozittelia

Mammalia

Synonyms
  • Carolozittelia eluta was named by Ameghino (1901) [Said to be from the Deseadan of "Oeste de Río Chico cerca Chubut", but Simpson (1967:239-240) suggested it is Casamayoran and perhaps synonymous with _C. tapiroides_.]. Its type specimen is MACN 10973, a tooth (imperfect M1), and it is a 3D body fossil.

    It was considered a nomen dubium by Simpson (1967).
