This article is about the first equine. For the artiodactyl, see
Hippopotamus .
Hippotherium extinct genus of horse that lived in during the Miocene through Pliocene ~13.65—6.7 Mya , existing for 6.95 million years
The last known surviving Hippotherium was H. malpassii , found in Italy.[1]
Species [ edit ]
Jaw and teeth Metapodial Skull Skeleton of H. primigenius
The type species, H. primigenium , is known from Miocene deposits in Europe (e.g., the Hegau region in southern Germany)[2] H. koenigswaldi and H. catalaunicum have been found in Miocene deposits in Spain.[citation needed The Asian hipparionin "Hipparion" weihoense from early Late Miocene deposits in northern China has also been referred to the genus.[3]
H. primigenium was a generalist feeder which frequently browsed but could also exploit grasses .[4]
Fossil distribution [ edit ]
Doue-la-Fontaine France estimated age: ~13.65—7.25 Mya.
Lower Bakhtiari Formation, northern Iraq , estimated age: ~11.6—9.0 Mya.
Kurtchuk-Tchekmedje, Turkey estimated age: ~11.61—5.33 Mya.
