Jaggermeryx
''Jaggermeryx'' is an extinct genus of semiaquatic anthracothere, ungulates related to hippopotamuses, from early Miocene Africa. The genus was named after Mick Jagger.
==Discovery==
The first fossils of the species were described in a monograph published by a French scientist in 1918.〔 It was not until 2014, however, that the fossils were identified as a unique species from further specimens collected at Wadi Moghra in the Qattara Depression of Egypt. The fossils have been deposited at the Cairo Geological Museum, Cairo University, and Duke University.〔〔
At the site, six species of anthracotheres were discovered, but this sample was unlike other family members because of "a series of tiny holes on either side of its jaw that held the nerves providing sensation to the chin and lower lip."〔
The National Science Foundation supported the research.〔
