Abstract
The locality of Campo has yielded a mammalian faunule well dated as Th anetian. The faunule is dominated by the new hyopsodontid condylarth P aschatherium yvettae n. sp. which is the oldest described species of t he genus. Magnetostratigraphic data allow the direct correlation of th e locality with the Upper Tiffanian of North America.
