It is estimated that Batodonoides weighed only 1.3 grams, and lived about 53 million years ago during the beginning of the Eocene in North America. It is a member of the Order Insectivora. The fossilized remains of a juvenile, consisting of a mandible and some teeth, were discovered in 1998 in Wyoming in 53 million year old rocks. Other members of the genus are known from California, also from the Early Eocene.
