Abstract
New excavations in the Tagay locality have revealed the presence of Amphilagus plicadentis Erbajeva, 2013, which belongs to the palaeolagine Lagomorpha rather than leporids, previously referred to Procaprolagus sp. (Logachev et al., 1964). Herein, we report a comprehensive morphological description of this species and compare it with the other known species of the genus Amphilagus. The Tagay lagomorph is conspecific with the Early Miocene species Amphilagus plicadentis found at locality Unkheltseg (UNCH-A) (biozone D; Early Miocene) in the Valley of Lakes, Central Mongolia. The Tagay specimens suggest a more advanced evolutionary stage of A. plicadentis and an age around Early/Middle Miocene transition.

期刊介绍：
Palaeobiodiversity and Palaeoenvironments is a peer-reviewed international journal for the publication of high-quality multidisciplinary studies in the fields of palaeobiodiversity, palaeoenvironments and palaeobiogeography. Key criteria for the acceptance of manuscripts are a global scope or implications of problems on a global scale significant not only for a single discipline, a focus on the diversity of fossil organisms and the causes and processes of change in Earth’s history. The topics covered include: Systematic studies of all fossil animal / plant groups with a special focus on palaeoenvironmental investigations, palaeoecosystems and climate changes in Earth’s history, environment-organism interaction, comparison of modern and ancient sedimentary environments, palaeoecology and palaeobiogeography.
