Euharamiyida

Euharamiyida Temporal range: Late Triassic to Jurassic
Scientific classification
Kingdom:	Animalia
Division:	Chordata
Class:	Mammalia
Subclass:	Theriiformes
Infraclass:	†Allotheria?
(unranked):	†Haramiyida
Order:	†Euharamiyida Bi, Wang, Guan, Sheng, & Meng, 2014

Euharamiyids were a clade of early mammals from the Jurassic Period 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]
