Lophiodon lautricense (often referenced as 'Noulet') is a giant Eocene mammal from the family Lophiodontidae, known from the fossil site of Robiac near Saint-Mamert-du-Gard. Lophiodon lautricense was among the largest European ungulates of the Eocene. The genus is closely related to chalicotheres and exhibits typical features of a perissodactyl ('odd-toed ungulate'). Studies show that Lophiodon lautricense consumed a high proportion of hard, abrasive plant material, which is reflected in the special adaptations of its teeth.
