Phylum: Chordata
Class: Mammalia

Hahn G., 1977

The genus Henkelodon ("Henkel's tooth") was named by Hahn G. in 1977 based on a single species.

Fossil remains of the species Henkelodon naias were discovered in the Kimmeridgian (Upper Jurassic)-age Alcobaça Formation of Guimarota, Portugal. The remains consisted of one upper jaw. According to Kielan-Jaworowska and Hurum, 2001, (p. 413), this genus was named in 1987. However, Hahn and Hahn 2000 (p. 105) supports 1977.
