Necrolestes ("grave robber" or "thief of the dead") is an extinct genus of mammals, which lived during the Early Miocene in what is now Argentine Patagonia. It is the most recent known genus of Meridiolestida, an extinct group of mammals more closely related to therians than to monotremes that dominated South America during the Late Cretaceous. It contains two species, N. patagonensis and N. mirabilis, The type species N. patagonensis was named by Florentino Ameghino in 1891 based on remains found by his brother, Carlos Ameghino in Patagonia. Fossils of Necrolestes have been found in the Sarmiento and Santa Cruz Formations.

  • Necrolestes is een geslacht van uitgestorven zoogdieren die 16 miljoen jaar geleden voorkwamen in het Vroeg-Mioceen. Het is het enige geslacht van de familie Necrolestidae. Necrolestes is de laatst bekende vertegenwoordiger van de Dryolestida. (nl)
  • Necrolestes — рід викопних ссавців ряду (Dryolestida), що існував у пізньому міоцені у Південній Америці. Викопні рештки тварини знайдені в Патагонії на півдні Аргентини. Викопні копалини некролестів виявлені у формаціях Сармієнто та Санта-Крус. Некролестес іноді реконструюється як кротоподібна істота. Ймовірно, він харчувався комахами або хробаками. (uk)
  • Necrolestes (del griego "ladrón de tumbas" o "ladrón de los muertos" + Patagonia) es un enigmático género de mamífero extinto, de difícil clasificación taxonómica, que vivió a principios del Mioceno de Suramérica. (es)
  • Necrolestes patagonensis ("predatore di tombe" o "ladro dei morti" + Patagonia) è un mammifero estinto, ritenuto forse un marsupiale, che visse in Sudamerica nel Miocene inferiore. Circa un terzo dello scheletro dell'animale - comprendente la maggior parte del cranio - è stato ricostruito a partire da ossa dissociate di vari individui. La mascella si incurva verso l'alto alla punta, sostenendo, forse, un'appendice carnosa simile ai tentacoli sensoriali della talpa dal muso stellato. Necrolestes viene talvolta ricostruito anche come una creatura simile ad una talpa. Probabilmente si nutriva di insetti o vermi. (it)
