Biologycruft of a mammal that doesn't assert notability beyond that it used to exist. Voretus (talk) 12:54, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

• Keep Species are generally considered inherently notable and therefore are not generally required to assert notability. Nonetheless, the species both appears to have existed and is also referenced, with a number of additional sources available from only a cursory search. Debate (talk) 13:09, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

• Keep. Biologycruft? This is a known genus of animal that once existed. The fact that the genus has been given scholarly attention, both in the book cited in the article, and the few hits that are available online, are more than sufficient showing of notability. The guidelines must be interpreted with common sense, clearly the topic is one that traditionally would be covered in an encyclopedia.
