Marcano's solenodon

Marcano's solenodon (Solenodon marcanoi) was a species of mammal in the family Solenodontidae. It is known only from skeletal remains found on the island of Hispaniola. The remains were found in association with those from rats of the genus Rattus, which suggests Marcano's solenodon survived until the time of European colonisation of the island. It was smaller than the two extant members of its genus.

Like other Solenodon species, it was a nocturnal, burrowing, shrew-like mammal with a long snout, that fed on insects. Solenodons are among only a handful of mammals to have venomous bites.
