Hesperolemur ("western lemur" from Ancient Greek ἕσπερος (hésperos), “western” + New Latin Lemur, "lemur") is a genus of adapiform primate that lived in the middle Eocene (49-37 million years ago) of southern California. It is an immigrant taxa which appears to be most closely related to the earlier European forms of Cantius. It was approximately 4.5 kilograms (9.9 lb) in weight and was the last surviving notharctine species, probably because of its position in the refugia that existed in southern California during the climate deterioration at the end of the middle Eocene. There are no later taxa that appear to have derived from Hesperolemur.

  • Hesperolemur es un género de primate extinto que vivió a mediados del Eoceno (49-37 millones de años) en el sur de California, Estados Unidos. Se trata de un taxón que parece estar más estrechamente relacionado con las anteriores formas europeas de Cantius. Eran aproximadamente de 4,5 kg de peso y fue la última especie sobreviviente de la subfamilia Notharctinae, probablemente debido a su posición en el refugio que existía en el sur de California durante el deterioro del clima al final del Eoceno medio. No hay taxones más tardíos que parezcan haber derivado de Hesperolemur. (es)

Morfológicamente, Hesperolemur es distinto de otros taxones de notárctinos en tener un ectotimpánico parcialmente fusionado en el , sin la arteria , y por carecer de paracónidos inferiores. Como el espécimen utilizado para realizar estos análisis fue gravemente dañado, otros han argumentado en contra de la existencia de tales diferencias y han sugerido que Hesperolemur debe ser reclasificado como una especie de Cantius, Cantius actius.

Morphologically, Hesperolemur is distinct from other notharctine taxa in having a partially fused ectotympanic in the auditory bulla, no artery, and no lower molar . As the specimen used to make these analyses was badly damaged, others have argued against the existence of such differences and move Hesperolemur to a species of Cantius, Cantius actius. (en)
