Eurohippus is an extinct genus of equid ungulate, endemic to Europe during the early Eocene.. Its species were long considered part of Propalaeotherium and Lophiotherium.
Eurohippus was a small animal, weighing just 10 kg. It had no hooves, but instead several small nail-like hooflets. The well-preserved fossils a pregnant specimen was described in 2015, showed their herbivory, specifically their preference to eat berries and leaf matter picked up from the forest floor.
