Families

Notioprogonia is a suborder of the extinct mammalian order Notoungulata and includes two families, Henricosborniidae and Notostylopidae. Notioprogonia includes the most primitive notoungulates and [2] has argued that Notioprogonia is paraphyletic because it would include the ancestors of the remaining suborders.
