Articles related to the Stegodontidae, an extinct family of Stegodon-like proboscideans that was endemic to Africa and Asia from the Miocene (15.97 mya)[1] to the Late Pleistocene, with some studies suggesting that some survived into the Holocene in China (until as recently as 4.1 thousand years ago),[2] although this is disputed.[3]
