Resumen
In this work, we present several new materials collected at the pink sandstone levels from the Las Flores Formation at the Cerro Pan de Azúcar (Gaiman, Chubut Province, Argentina) and compare them with taxa present in other localities of similar age. The Metatheria taxa described here are 1) the ‘Ameridelphia’ Sternbergiidae indet; 2) the Didelphimorphia Protodidelphis cf. mastodontoides and Guggenheimia glykeia sp. nov. (Protodidelphidae); 3) the Polydolopimorphia Pliodolops rothi and Pliodolops cf. kamektsen (Polydolopidae); and 4) the Microbiotheria Eomicrobiotherium diluculum sp. nov. (Microbiotheriidae). On the other hand, the Cingulata Dasypodidae is represented by the Astegotheriini Prostegotherium astrifer. This fauna shares more species with those occurring in the localities from Paso del Sapo than with any other early–middle Eocene localities. However, at the generic level, it shares several taxa with the Itaboraian fauna from Sao José de Itaboraí. Finally, the faunal associations from Pan de Azúcar, Paso del Sapo, Cañadón Hondo, and Bajo de la Palangana could be, at least in part, synchronous, representing locally the Riochican SALMA, with an age spanning from 51 to 45 Ma (early Ypresian- early Lutetian).
