Eosiren is an extinct genus of sea cow that lived during the Late Eocene (later Priabonian) to Early Oligocene (Rupelian). Several fossils have been found in Egypt. It seems like the species E. abeli were contemporaneous with Protosiren and Eotheroides. like them, Eosiren closely resembled modern sirenians. It differes from them by having somewhat larger innominates and possess thigh bones.

  • Eosiren è un estinto genere di Sirenii vissuto nell'Eocene medio e superiore nell'antico mare della Tetide. L'animale presenta ancora tracce della seconda e terza coppia di incisivi e di canini e, rispetto alle specie precedenti, un diminuito grado di riduzione del bacino che ha un completo "cotile" per la testa del femore. I denti anteriori (incisivi e canini) sono stati tuttavia spinti ai lati della mandibola per fare spazio, forse, ad un piatto di cornea al palato. Si tratta di un grande progresso rispetto alle specie precedenti come Eotheroides e Sirenavus dove gli incisivi e le zanne erano più grandi ma occupavano ancora una posizione normale di fronte alle ganasce.

  • Eosiren — це вимерлий рід морських корів, який жив у період від пізнього еоцену до раннього олігоцену. Кілька скам'янілостей знайдено в Єгипті. Схоже, що види E. abeli були одночасними з Protosiren і Eotheroides. Як і вони, Eosiren дуже нагадував сучасних сирен. Відрізняється від них дещо більшими безіменними і стегновими кістками. (uk)

It seems like the species E. abeli were contemporaneous with Protosiren and Eotheroides. like them, Eosiren closely resembled modern sirenians. It differes from them by having somewhat larger innominates and possess thigh bones. Eosiren was first described by vertebrage paleontologist Charles William Andrews in 1902, who distinguished it from the genus Halitherium due to differences in the teeth and mandible. Later that year, Science published a summary of his findings in a collection on advances in . (en)
