DescriptionThis sloth resided in the Antilles and showed a range of body size, from Parocnus-sized to Megalocnus-sized or larger. Its relationships to other Antillean sloths are not immediately clear, though the genera Megalocnus and Parocnus, other ground sloths, are its most likely relatives.[1] See also{{portal|Paleontology|Neogene|Prehistoric mammals|Prehistory of North America}}
