Hi, I'm Helioseus. I'm a mammalian paleontologist and a taxonomist. I'm trying to improve coverage of fossil mammals where I can.

[edit] Pages Started

• Simocyon
• Sifrhippus
• Plesiadapidae
• Periptychidae
• Hapalodectidae
• Triisodontidae
• Oromerycidae
• Extinct beavers: Kellogg's Beaver, Anchitheriomys, Propalaeocastor, Migmacastor
• Notoungulate suborders (except Toxodonta) and families, esp. Mesotheriidae
• Mixotoxodon
• Nesodon
• Vulpes riffautae
• Nurocyon
• Stubs of most genera of Hesperocyoninae: Caedocyon, Ectopocynus, Mesocyon (from redirect), Philotrox, Prohesperocyon, Sunkahetanka
• Template:Canidae extinct nav

[edit] Current Projects

• Borophaginae. Its a nice self-contained group and almost everything is neatly encapsulated in one beautiful monograph, so I'm adding pages for missing genera one at a time.

Done so far: Archaeocyon, Oxetocyon, Otarocyon

• Obscure fossil rodent families: Alagomyidae, Archetypomyidae, Cephalomyidae, Gobiomyidae, Ivanantoniidae
