Arsinoithere
Arsinoitheriidae
Family of mammals
Arsinoitheriidae is a family of mammals belonging to the extinct order Embrithopoda.[1] Remains have been found in the Middle East, Africa, Asia and Romania. When alive, they would have borne a strong but superficial resemblance to modern rhinoceroses; however, they were not closely related to them (or any other perissodactyl), instead being more closely related to hyraxes, elephants, sirenians, and possibly desmostylians (as part of the superorder Afrotheria).
