Biology:Microchoerinae
From HandWiki
Microchoerinae is an extinct subfamily of omomyid primates.[1]
Description
Microchoerines are often found in Europe [1] and are more derived in postcrania than some North American omomyids, like Omomys.[2] They resemble tarsiers in form. Like most omomyids, they are speculated to be insectivores, and lived in trees.[3]
