Human (Clovis)-gomphothere (Cuvieronius sp.) association ∼ 13,390 calibrated yBP in Sonora, Mexico. [PDF]
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2014 SignificanceArchaeological evidence from Sonora, Mexico, indicates that the earliest widespread and recognizable group of hunter-gatherers (“Clovis”) were in place ∼13,390 y ago in southwestern North America. This is the earliest well-documented population on the continent and suggests that the unique Clovis artifact style originated in the southwest ...

Case 3479CuvieroniusOsborn, 1923 (Mammalia, Proboscidea): proposed conservation
The Bulletin of Zoological Nomenclature, 2009 The purpose of this application, under Articles 68 and 75 of the Code, is to conserve the generic name Cuvieronius Osborn, 1923, long and widely applied to extinct South American gomphotheriid proboscideans, by setting aside all previous type species fixations and designating Mastotherium hyodon Fischer, 1814 as the type species of Cuvieronius and by ...

Extinction of North AmericanCuvieronius(Mammalia: Proboscidea: Gomphotheriidae) driven by dietary resource competition with sympatric mammoths and mastodons [PDF]
Paleobiology, 2020 AbstractThe gomphotheres were a diverse and widespread group of proboscideans occupying Eurasia, North America, and South America throughout the Neogene. Their decline was temporally and spatially heterogeneous, and the gomphotheres ultimately became extinct during the late Pleistocene; however, the genusCuvieroniusis rarely represented in late ...

The palaeobiogeography of South American gomphotheres
Journal of Palaeogeography, 2013 Gomphotheriid proboscideans reached South America as Late Cenozoic immigrants from North America. However, disagreements over alpha taxonomy, age dating and phylogenetic relationships have produced three competing hypotheses about this immigration: (1) a

Taxonomic remarks on the South American Mastodons referred to Haplomastodon and Cuvieronius
Geobios, 1995 New mastodon finds collected in the Province of Carchi (Northern Ecuador) give further evidence that in South America Haplomastodon and Cuvieronius are monospecific. Of all the specific names referred to the genus Haplomastodon, only chimborazi must be considered valid as it alone was based on significant diagnostic material.
