Additional Information
Plesiadapis is a genus of an early primate-like mammal
The first discovery of Plesiadapis was made by François Louis Paul Gervaise in 1877, who first discovered Plesiadapis tricuspidens in France. The type specimen is MNHN Crl-16, and is a left mandibular fragment dated to the early Eocene epoch. This genus probably arose in North America and colonized Europe on a land bridge via Greenland.
