Hiskatherium

Hiskatherium is an extinct genus of small ground sloth from the Middle Miocene (Friasian to Mayoan) Honda Group of Bolivia.^[1] The type species H. saintandrei was named in 2011 on the basis of a lower jaw. Although it has not been placed in a specific family, Hiskatherium is similar to the extinct sloths Hapalops and Xyophorus.^[2]
