Kouriogenys
Kouriogenys is a genus of extinct mammal from the Early Cretaceous of southern England. The type and only species was originally described as "Spalacotherium minus" by Richard Owen in 1871 for a dentary with teeth from the Berriasian Lulworth Formation, although it was given its own genus in 2012 by Brian Davis. The genus name is taken from the Ancient Greek "youthful" and "jaw" in reference to the replacement method of the premolars. "Kouriogenys" is closely related to coexisting genera "Peramus" and "Peramuroides", and along with other genera these make up the family Peramuridae, a group of extinct zatherians.
