Eurygnathohippus is an extinct genus of hipparionine horse.^[2]^[1] The majority of known fossils of members of this genus were discovered in Africa, where members of this genus lived during the late Miocene to Pleistocene interval.^[1]^[3] Fossils of Eurygnathohippus were also reported from the late Pliocene sediments of the Potwar Plateau in Pakistan and the Siwalik Hills in northwest India.^[4]
