Prolagus is an extinct genus of pika within the order Lagomorpha. Over 20 species of Prolagus have been named, beginning in the Early Miocene in Europe 20 million years ago, where it ranged widely for most of the epoch; by the end of the Middle Pleistocene, it was confined to a single species, the Sardinian pika (P. sardus), on the Mediterranean islands of Corsica, Sardinia, and surrounding islands, where it survived into historical times. In Africa and Asia, the genus is known from the Miocene and Pliocene. The scientific name may mean "before hares" or "primitive hares" (pro- meaning "before" and lagos meaning "hare").

  • Prolagus es un género extinto de mamíferos lagomorfos de la familia Prolagidae, conocidos como picas gigantes del Mediterráneo. Otros taxónomos lo colocan en la familia Ochotonidae. Se caracterizaban por no poseer el último molar inferior, al contrario que los miembros del género Ochotona, que poseen el último molar inferior pero no el superior.​ (es)

  • Sarduszkowate (Prolagidae) – wymarła monotypowa rodzina ssaków łożyskowych z rzędu zajęczaków (Lagomorpha). Takson ten, jako Prolaginae była dawniej uważana za podrodzinę szczekuszkowatych (Ochotonidae). (pl)
  • A família Prolagidae contém um único gênero, o Prolagus. No passado, era considerada como sendo uma subfamília de Ochotonidae. Contém diversas formas pré-históricas, e somente uma espécie sobreviveu em épocas recentes. (pt)
  • Пролагус (Prolagus) — вимерлий рід зайцеподібних ссавців монотипічної родини Prolagidae. Ця родина, як Prolaginae раніше вважалася підродиною Пискухових (Ochotonidae). Представники Prolagus вперше з'явилися в ранньому міоцені в Європі, де вони збереглися до історичних часів. В Африці та Азії, рід відомий з міоцену і пліоцену. (uk)
  • Prolagus (Pomel, 1853) è un genere di mammiferi lagomorfi, l'unico ascritto alla famiglia dei Prolagidae. A questo genere vengono ascritte tutte le specie di pica mediterranei o pica giganti, così chiamati per la loro effettiva rassomiglianza con le specie di pica del genere Ochotona (delle quali erano un tempo considerati forme ancestrali, e come tali classificate come sottofamiglia nell'ambito degli Ocotonidi). Erano tuttavia considerevolmente più grandi sia dei pica, che della maggior parte delle specie di Leporidi attuali. (it)
