Abstract

A new small sciuravid rodent, Natrona natronensis, new genus and species, from Uintan and Duchesnean deposits in the Wagon Bed Formation at the Hendry Ranch locality in central Wyoming exhibits some morphological parallelism in the structure of its P4 to the M1 of the more derived cricetid rodents. Other occurrences of this new lineage may be from the Eocene of Trans-Pecos Texas and Lac Pelletier, Saskatchewan, Canada.
