Paleobiology, 2004 To reconstruct the paleodiet and habitat preference of gomphotheres, we measured the carbon and oxygen isotope composition of 68 bone and tooth samples for three species of Gomphotheriidae from 24 different localities (Argentina, Bolivia, Ecuador, Chile, and Brazil).

Neotropical Anachronisms: The Fruits the Gomphotheres Ate
Science, 1982Frugivory by extinct horses, gomphotheres, ground sloths, and other Pleistocene megafauna offers a key to understanding certain plant reproductive traits in Central American lowland forests. When over 15 genera of Central American large herbivores became extinct roughly 10,000 years ago, seed dispersal and subsequent distributions of many ...

ABSTRACTUnusual shovel-tusked gomphothere material from the late Clarendonian Black Butte Local Fauna (Juntura Formation, Oregon), including a lower tusk, partial upper tusk, and two mandibles including a second and a third molar, has been described and referred to Platybelodon. Platybelodon has the following diagnostic characteristics: molars strongly

Vertebral lesions in Notiomastodon platensis, Gomphotheriidae, from Anolaima, Colombia
Quaternary Research, 2022Six vertebrae (one cervical, three articulated thoracic, and two lumbar) and an incomplete thoracic neural spine from a new late Pleistocene site at Anolaima, Cundinamarca, Colombia, are attributed to the extinct gomphothere (Elephantoidea, Proboscidea ...

Abstract The name ‘gomphotheres’ is used here in a restrictive sense; it is not entirely synonymous with the ‘bunodont mastodonts’ (sensu Tobien 1973a) or the family name Gomphotheriidae Hay, 1922, based on the genus Gomphotherium Burmeister, 1837.
