Ptilodontidae is a family of primitive mammals within the extinct order Multituberculata. Representatives are known from the Upper Cretaceous and Paleocene of North America. The Ptilodontidae family was originally named Ptilodontinae and classified as a subfamily by Edward Drinker Cope in 1887. It was amended by Gregory and Simpson in 1926 to its current status.

  • Els ptilodòntids (Ptilodontidae) són una família de mamífers de l'extint ordre Multituberculata. Els representants són coneguts des del Cretaci superior i Paleocè a Nord-amèrica. La família Ptilodontidae originalment denominada Ptilodontinae i classificat com a subfamília per Edward Drinker Cope en 1887. Va ser modificat per Gregory i Simpson en 1926 al seu estat actual. A més, Cope erròniament, va classificar al gènere Ptilodus com un marsupial. Ell la va cridar originalment Chirox, i ho va col·locar en la nova família Chirogidae. S'ha reclassificat i Chirogidae és ara oficialment un sinònim de Ptilodontidae. (ca)

  • Ptilodontidae is a family of primitive mammals within the extinct order Multituberculata. Representatives are known from the Upper Cretaceous and Paleocene of North America. The Ptilodontidae family was originally named Ptilodontinae and classified as a subfamily by Edward Drinker Cope in 1887. It was amended by Gregory and Simpson in 1926 to its current status. In addition, Cope mistakenly classified the Ptilodus genus as a marsupial. He originally named it Chirox, and placed it in the new family Chirogidae in 1887. Since it has been reclassified, and Chirogidae is now officially a synonym of Ptilodontidae. One of the most outstanding features of this family of squirrel-like, arboreal mammals, was the peculiar shape of their last lower premolar. It was larger and more elongated than its neighbours, and its occlusive surface was formed into a serrated slicing blade. Most likely this tooth was used for crushing and opening seeds and nuts, but it is believed that the ptilodonts, like most small multituberculates, supplemented their diet with insects, worms, and fruits.
