Eggysodon is an extinct genus of odd-toed ungulate. It was a small, ground-dwelling browser, and fossils have been found in Oligocene rocks of Germany.[2] A closely related genus, but with a greater number of incisors and premolars, has been found in Oligocene rocks in Khazakhstan. The genus, Tenisia, was described in 1915.[3] Eggysodon may have been related to Preaceratherium, and both had tusklike canines and smaller, and fewer, incisors.[4] It is also related to Prohyracodon, and is synonymous with Allacerops.[1]
