Eulamaops is an extinct genus of camelid belonging to the tribe Lamini, endemic to South America during the Pleistocene (Lujanian, 781,000—12,000 years ago), existing about 0.769 million years.[1] Fossil remains of Eulamaops have been found in the Luján Formation in Argentina[1] in areas that would have been open grass and shrub land. [2] It is estimated to have weighed 150 kilograms [3]
