Nestoritherium

Nestoritherium is an extinct genus of chalicothere; it has been dated to have lived from the late Miocene to the Early Pleistocene (11.6–0.781 mya).

[4] The genus Nestoritherium was erected by German paleontologist Johann Jakob Kaup in 1859 for the species then known as Chalicotherium sivalense,[5] itself named in 1843 by Falconer and Cautley from early Pleistocene material from India.

[6] The shortened faced and brachyodont dentition suggests it belongs to the subfamily Chalicotheriinae.

[1] Nestoritherium fuguense was named from partial lower jaw and palate material from Miocene beds in Fugu County, China in 2014.

[6] Material consisting of a fragmentary upper and lower molar recovered from the (early Pleistocene) Irrawaddy Formation in Myanmar has been referred to the genus Nestoritherium.
