Huilabradys is an extinct genus of ground sloths of the family Nothrotheriidae that lived in what is now Colombia.
Huilabradys was discovered in the strata of the La Tatacoa desert in the Huila department, in the Villavieja Formation, and is part of the so-called La Venta fauna, a fossiliferous location from the mid-Miocene period that has provided a notable paleontological contribution on the Miocene faunas of northern South America.
[1] The genus name, Huilabradys, is derived from the Huila Department in Colombia and bradys meaning "slow".
[1] Huilabradys is a medium-sized species, similar in size to the Argentine species Pronothrotherium mirabilis, characterized by a very high mandibular ramus and characteristics of its molariform teeth, such as the lack of a diastema between the first and second molars and the oblique location of the fourth molars.
Additional remains found in the area suggest the presence of other nothrotheriines as unidentified species that could belong to the genera Hapalops and Eucholoeops, previously known from Argentina and Bolivia, along with a species of mylodontid sloth Magdalenabradys.
