About Indotriconodon
Indotriconodon magnus is an extinct mammal from the Late Cretaceous of India. A eutriconodont, it represents the geologically youngest of the group dating to the Maastrichtian just a few thousand years before the K-Pg event (a record previously held by Alticonodon lindoei from the Campanian of Canada), as well as a relatively large sized Mesozoic mammal.
