Edentata

Edentata, an order of mammals confined to the Neotropical region, and having little in common except the absence of teeth, or the possession of very imperfect ones. There are five families, of which the Aardvark, the Anteater, the Armadillo, the Manis, and the Sloth (all which see) are the respective types. The extinct Megatherium, the type of the family Megatheriidee, belonged to the Edentata.
