Iberomeryx is an extinct genus of tragulid that lived in Europe and Balkanatolia during the Eocene and Oligocene epochs. [1]
Iberomeryx minor was a selective browser that would have fed on fruits and dicot leaves, although may have occasionally consumed animal matter on rare occasions and not have been exclusively herbivorous. [2]
