Suggestions for a piece

[crankydinosaur]

So I have exhausted the internet and all of my paleo-books so now I come to you friends. I need suggestions for (Late) Miocene Oklahoma (and a bot of the surrounding areas are okay too)

so far I have

Mammalia:

Artiodactylia:

Synthetoceros
Megatylopus (Megacamelus?)
Procamelus
Protolabis
Hemiauchenia
Prosthennops

Perissodactyla:

Pliohippus
Merychippus
Aphelops (how tall and long was it?)
Some species of Tapir?

Then I got hypogalus and hespertestudo

Any other reptiles or birds (especially birds - crows? pigeons?)

Carnivores?

Thanks!

I believe a few Cetotherium species (at least two called Virgina and Maryland home) as did a Diorocetus species as well. For the area those are the only two I can think of at the moment. :/

[ZoPteryx]

Reptiles: There probably would have been an alligator of some type present.  Rattlesnakes were starting to evolve at about that time too.  Pond turtles should also have been present.

Birds:  Most modern bird groups had evolved by the Miocene.  Crows, pigeons/doves, raptors, herons, and woodpeckers are all probably safe bets.

From some quick searches (looked up Late Miocene Oklahoma fossils--assuming you are going with Clarendonian NALMA) I found reference to frogs, gars, moles, shrews, hedgehogs, small bats, pikas, rabbit, squirrels, voles, beavers, jumping mice, weasels (Sthenictis), dogs (Aelurodon), coati (Paranasua), Tapir (Prosthenops), Merycoidodont (Ustatochoerus), small deer (Blastomeryx or Longirostromeryx), palaeomerycid/antilocaprid, horses (Callipus, Pliohippus, Pseudhipparion, Hipparion, Cormohipparion).

And that's just one article!

And here's another abstract with a few more tidbits:
