Postcranial elements of Gomphos are similar to those of Mimolagus, suggesting affinity with lagomorphs. Gomphos elkema is a typical Bumbanian taxon, previously known only from Mongolia. Gomphos elkema specimens at Huheboerhe indicate occurrence of Bumbanian-equivalent beds and fauna in the region and suggest potential presence of the Paleocene-Eocene boundary in the Huheboerhe section.795455 bytesapplication/pdfen-USQL1 .A436 no.3425, 2004Gomphos elkema.Mammals, Fossil -- China -- Erlani Basin.Mammals, Fossil -- China -- Inner Mongolia.Paleontology -- Paleogene -- China -- Erlani Basin.Paleontology -- Paleogene -- China -- Inner Mongolia.Paleontology -- China -- Erlani Basin.Paleontology -- China -- Inner Mongolia.Gomphos elkema (Glires, Mammalia) from the Erlian Basin : evidence for the early Tertiary Bumbanian land mammal age in Nei-Mongol, China.
