Sinobaatar

Sinobaatar is an extinct mammal from the Lower Cretaceous of China. It was within the also extinct order of Multituberculata, and was a small herbivore during 'the age of the dinosaurs'.
(For the technically minded, suborder "Plagiaulacida", family Eobaataridae.)

Genus: Sinobaatar Hu Y & Wang Y, 2002

Species: Sinobaatar lingyuanensis Hu Y & Wang Y, 2002
Place: Yixian Formation, Liaoning
Country: China
Age: Lower Cretaceous
Remarks: This sounds like another amazing find from the fossil fields of Liaoning. "The dental features of Sinobaatar show again that eobaatarids are obviously intermediate between Late Jurassic multituberculates and the later forms," (Hu & Wang, 2002). The abstract reports this as a skeleton. Many multis are only known from teeth. The species name is in honour of Lingyuan[?] City.
