Plesiadapis, yaklaşık 58-55 milyon yıl önce[3] Kuzey Amerika ve Avrupa'da yaşamış, bilinen en eski primat benzeri memeli cinslerinden biridir.[1] Plesiadapis, Eosen devrinde yaşamış adapiform primatı Adapis'e atfen "Adapise yakın" anlamına gelir. Bu cinsin tip türü olan Plesiadapis tricuspidens adını üst kesici dişlerinde bulunan üç tüberkülden alır.
