Arcticanodon dawsonae , a primitive new palaeanodont from the lower Eocene of Ellesmere Island, Canadian High Arctic
A new genus and species of palaeanodont, Arcticanodon dawsonae, is based on a single lower jaw fragment from lower Eocene (Wasatchian) strata of the Margaret Formation, Eureka Sound Group, on central Ellesmere Island, Nunavut. The new taxon is more derived than early Paleocene Escavadodontidae, but...
