Les Chalicothéridés ou Ancylopodes [...] qui vécurent de l'Éocène au Pléistocène, ressemblent aux Titanothéridés par leur taille, par leur crâne et par leur denture. [...] Les membres sont très particuliers: ils se terminent généralement par trois doigts; [...] surtout, les phalanges onguéales sont fortes et fendues comme celles qui portent les griffes chez les Édentés [...]
