摘要:The upper Bathonian Kirtlington mammal bed of England is one of the rare Middle Jurassic sites in the world to have yielded mammalian remains and undoubtedly the richest. A few taxa have so far been described,among which the genus Cyrtlatherium Freeman,1979,assigned by its author to the Kuehneotheriidae and subsequently included in the Symmetrodonta. In this note I argue that Cyrtlatherium represents a docodont of which it is possibly a milk premolar.
