About: Nosmips

An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Nosmips aenigmaticus is a rare fossil primate known only from 12 teeth. Most teeth were found at a site in the Fayum Depression about 40 miles (64 km) outside Cairo, Egypt. Nosmips aenigmaticus probably lived 37 million years ago in Africa and has not been successfully classified within any group of primates. In particular, it is distinct from the three main branches of primate found in Africa at the time - anthropoids, adapiforms and lemuriforms. It is weakly associated with the Eosimiidae. Its premolars are specialised and the tooth enamel displays extensive signs of pitting, which would appear to be consistent with a diet of either seeds or fruits with hard pits.

  • Nosmips ist eine ausgestorbene Gattung der Primaten, die vor rund 37 Millionen Jahren im Gebiet der heutigen Fossillagerstätte Fayyum in Ägypten vorkam. Typusart und zugleich bislang einzige Art der Gattung ist Nosmips aenigmaticus. Die stammesgeschichtliche Einordnung der Gattung innerhalb der Ordnung der Primaten ist ungeklärt. (de)
  • Nosmips aenigmaticus es un raro y misterioso primate fósil conocido solo por 12 dientes, que no permiten encuadrarlo en ninguno de los grupos conocidos de primates del Eoceno de África. Se encontraron en la depresión del Fayum, a las afueras del El Cairo, Egipto.​ Nosmips aenigmaticus probablemente vivió hace unos 37 millones de años en África y no ha podido ser clasificado con éxito en los grupos de primates conocidos.​ Se ha considerado débilmente, sin embargo, que estuviera asociado con los Eosimiidae..​ (es)

  • Nosmips aenigmaticus (лат.) — вид вымерших приматов, обнаруженный в египетском оазисе Файюм (40 миль от Каира) в 2010 году. Известен по находкам всего 12 зубов. Назван в честь палеонтолога Джорджа Гейлорда Симпсона, которые были страстью этого учёного; научное название вида представляет собой анаграмму. (ru)
