Hainina

Hainina is an extinct mammal genus from the latest Cretaceous to the Paleocene of Europe.

Genus

The genus Hainina ("from Hainin") was named by Vianey-Liaud M. in 1979. This genus was originally referred to as Cimolomyidae. "We assign Hainina to the Kogaionidae (superfamily incertae sedis); it differs from Kogaionon in having ornamented enamel, while the enamel is smooth in Kogaionon".<ref>Kielan-Jaworowska & Hurum, 2001, p. 409</ref> Material has also been reported from the Upper Cretaceous of Romania.
