Earliest Relative[edit]

"it may have been the earliest known relative to the evolutionary line leading to Theria." - What does this mean? Isn't, say, Dimetrodon also a "relative to the evolutionary line leading to Theria" - and even earlier than fruitafossor? ErikHaugen (talk) 14:58, 11 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Age[edit]

Fruitafossa is apparently known from a single specimen. If so, the 155.7-150.8 Ma is an indication of uncertainty and not a duration of existence. The lead sentence should be changed.

Weight[edit]

The article says that Fruitafossor weighed 6 g, but wouldn't it rather be 60 g? Because if I type in "Fruitafossor" on google, all the pages say "15 cm long" and "chipmunk sized"... Karli999 (talk) 19:32, 16 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
