Meanings of edentate in anglès

The Glyptodon was a mailed edentate, eight feet long, resembling the little armadillo.

This poor edentate was merely one of his more harmless pets.

I tried to call to him to move; but how could a poor edentate like myself articulate a word?

To lose one's spoon would be almost as serious as it is for an edentate person to lose his set of false teeth.

The largest of the edentates was the Megatherium, a. clumsy ground sloth bigger than a rhinoceros.

With them are ancestral forms of Edentates (sloths, etc.)

"If we ever get the chance, we'll select for an edentate jaw."

Whether that common ancestor was an Edentate, an Insectivore, or Creodont, or something more primitive than them all, is disputed.

These edentates survived from Tertiary times, and in the warmer stages of the Pleistocene ranged north as far as Ohio and Oregon.

A similarly significant evidence of relationship is afforded by processes of the zygomatic region of the skull in certain edentates existing and extinct.

This result shows that the edentates differ from other mammalian orders in that they contain lineages that diverged before the end of the Cretaceous Period.
