Taxonomic remark From Suarez et al., 2021: initially classified as a sloth ... This taxon, described on the basis of an isolated worn m3, was initially considered as Mammalia incertae sedis, being compared with the peccaries and didolodonts (Stirton, 1947), later assigned to Didolodontidae (Romer, 1967) and finally, doubtfully to the Sirenia (McKenna, 1956; Domning, 1982, 2001b).
