Euharamiyids were a clade of early mammals from the Jurassic era in China. The group is considered a sister group to Multituberculata.[1]

Evolution

By studying Euharamiyida, Bi et al. (2014) came to the conclusion that mammals evolved during the late Triassic, with allotherians diverging into Euharamiyids and Multituberculates around 208 million years ago from a common Haramiyavia-like ancestor.[1]
