Mammal, Primate

Pseudoloris lived at a time when primates were becoming uncommon in North America and Europe as tropical forests were well on their way to being replaced by the open woodlands of cooler, drier climates.  It was one of the last undisputed omomyid primates (Family Omomyidae) which may have been ancestral to modern tarsiers of southeast Asia.
