Ngapakaldia tedfordi
Ngapakaldia tedfordi is a sheep sized diprotodontid known from the late Oligocene of central Australia. It is one of the earlist known members of the Diprotodontidae family.
It shares a number of skeletal characteristics with arboreal marsupials, but scientists are unsure if this is a true indicator of its ability to live in trees or simply an ancestral character.
Below we feature a scan of the holotype.
