Klystroniids
Klystroniids are a group of extinct, rodent-like mammals that lived during the Paleocene epoch, around 60 million years ago. They were characterized by their primitive dental structure and relatively small body size, often comparable to those of modern-day rodents.
Phylogenetic studies suggest that klystroniids belonged to the order Mammalia, but their exact relationship to other
One of the most well-known species of klystroniids is Klystronius kleri, discovered in the late 20th century
Other evidence suggests the existence of additional klystroniid species, perhaps found in regions beyond the Americas.
Despite their enigmatic nature, klystroniids have provided valuable insights into the evolution and diversification of mammalian
Overall, the study of klystroniids continues to shed light on the early history of mammalian development, and
