Eobaatar Eobaatar is an extinct mammal from the Lower Cretaceous of Mongolia and Spain. It was a member of the also extinct order of Multituberculata, and lived at the same time as some dinosaurs. (For the technically minded, suborder "Plagiaulacida", family Eobaataridae.) Genus: Eobaatar Kielan-Jaworowska Z, Dashzeveg D & Trofimov BA, 1987 Reference: Kielan-Jaworowska et al (1987), Early Cretaceous multituberculates from Mongoloia and a comparison with Late Jurassic form. Acta Palaeontologica Polonica, 32, p.3-47. Species: Eobaatar hispanicus Hahn & Hahn, 1992 Place: Galve Country: Spain Age: Hauterivian - Barremian, Lower Cretaceous Remarks: Remains are restricted to a tooth.
