A very early stage in the evolution of the talonid basin is seen in a eupantothere lower molar from the Upper Bathonian of central England. The corresponding upper molars and the first known Middle Jurassic morganucodontid, kuehneotheriid, and dryolestid teeth are briefly described and illustrated.
