Resumen:
We describe the oldest South American Tertiary therian mammal from Danian-equivalent strata of northwestern Chubut province, Argentina. The specimen is an isolated lower molar most likely pertaining to a polydolopimorphian marsupial, a group known from the Late Cretaceous of North America as well as later Paleocene and Eocene deposits in South America.
