Xenohyus was an extinct genus of suids that existed during the Miocene in Europe. [1] [2]
It showed many similarities to peccaries rather than modern pigs.
The Phrynosomatidae are a diverse family of lizards, sometimes classified as a subfamily (Phrynosomatinae), found from Panama to the extreme south of Canada. Many members of the group are adapted to life in hot, sandy deserts, although the spiny lizards prefer rocky deserts or even relatively moist forest edges, and the short-horned lizard lives in prairie or sagebrush environments. The group includes both egg-laying and viviparous species, with the latter being more common in species living at high elevations.
Brevidorsum is an extinct genus of dissorophoidean euskelian temnospondyl within the family Dissorophidae.
Tetraconodontinae is an extinct subfamily of the pig family (Suidae). Fossils have been found in Africa and Asia.
Rhadalognathus was a prehistoric crocodile-like amphibian that belongs to the Mastodonsauridae family. Not much is known about this creature but it lived in the Triassic period. Rhadalognathus is also the name of the genus in which the organism belongs within. Rhadalognathus was found in northern Arizona, US, by S. P. Welles in 1947. The size of the organism is unknown but its skull is about 17in long and weighs 7lbs.
Hadrodontina is an extinct genus of conodonts in the family Ellisoniidae.

Paraconodontida is an extinct order of conodonts. It contains two superfamilies, Amphigeisinoidea and Furnishinoidea.
