| has gloss | eng: Gomphotheriidae is a diverse taxonomic family of extinct elephant-like animals (proboscideans), called gomphotheres. They were widespread in North America during the Miocene and Pliocene epochs, 12-1.6 million years ago. Some lived in parts of Eurasia, Beringia and, following the Great American Interchange, South America. From about 5 million years ago onwards, they were slowly replaced by modern elephants, but the last South American species did not finally become extinct until possibly as recently as 400 CE. Gomphotheres also survived in Mexico and Central America until the end of the Pleistocene. |

Frühe Gomphotherien besaßen vier Stoßzähne und höckrige Backenzähne. Spätere Formen hatten nur noch zwei Stoßzähne im Oberkiefer und teilweise Backenzähne mit lamellenartigen Zahnstrukturen. |
