Prolagus is an extinct genus of lagomorph. Over 20 species have been named, and the genus was abundant and widespread in Europe during the Neogene. However, by the end of the Middle Pleistocene, it was confined to a single species, the Sardinian pika (P. sardus), on Corsica, Sardinia, and their surrounding islands, where it survived into historical times. In North Africa and Western Asia, the genus is known from the Miocene and Pliocene. The scientific name may mean "before hares" or "primitive hares" (pro- meaning "before" and lagos meaning "hare"). Its taxonomy is disputed, with it either be

Dyrosaurus is a genus of extinct crocodylomorph that lived during the Early Eocene. The name Dyrosaurus comes from () the Greek for lizard or reptile, and Dyr for Djebel Dyr (mountain) close to where the type species was discovered. It was a large reptile with an estimated body length of .

Maresia is a genus of plants in the family Brassicaceae. The species can be found along the Mediterranean Sea and towards Iran and Afghanistan. There are two species in this genus:

Amphictis is an extinct genus of ailurids that existed from the Late Oligocene to the Middle Miocene with fossils found in Eurasia and North America with a total of nine described species. The interrelationships of the different species as well as their relationship to the other ailurids is not fully understood. Usually Amphictis is classified in the basal monotypic subfamily Amphictinae, but there is no certainty as the genus could potentially be a paraphyletic with the Oligocene species A. borbonica being a potential sister taxon to the ancestor of the subfamily Ailurinae (today consisting j

Bramus is a genus of fossorial rodents. It formerly contained only the extinct North African species Bramus barbarus. Both species in Bramus were moved to this genus from Ellobius. They differ from Ellobius in being larger, having a distinct sagital crest, and other features of the teeth and skull. They also occur allopatrically from Ellobius. They are sexually dimorphic, with females being larger than males. The genus comprises two extant species: Southern mole vole, Bramus fuscocapillus (Blyth, 1843) Transcaucasian mole vole, Bramus lutescens (Thomas, 1897)
