Intra- and interspecific variation in tooth morphology of procyon cancrivorus and p. Lotor (carnivora, procyonidae), and its bearing on the Taxonomy of fossil south American procyonids
(Associazione Teriologica Italiana, 2016-12)
The family Procyonidae (raccoons, coatis, olingos, ringtails, kinkajous, and their extinct relatives) consists of six extant genera and is restricted to North and South America. Currently recognized fossil species suggest ...
First description of milk teeth of fossil South American procyonid from the lower Chapadmalalan (Late Miocene–Early Pliocene) of “Farola Monte Hermoso,” Argentina: paleoecological considerations
(Springer Heidelberg, 2010-06)
The first record of milk teeth of South American fossil procyonids comes from the Late Miocene–Early Pliocene at “Farola Monte Hermoso,” Buenos Aires Province, Argentina. Five extant genera of Procyonidae inhabit South ...
Cyonasua (Carnivora, Procyonidae) from Late Miocene of Peru Shed Light on the Early Dispersal of Carnivorans in South America
(Society of Vertebrate Paleontology, 2020-08)
The oldest record of a carnivoran mammal in South America corresponds to the extinct procyonid Cyonasua (late Miocene–early Pleistocene). Up to now, this genus was recorded in Argentina, Uruguay, Bolivia, and Venezuela. ...
Body mass estimation for †Cyonasua (Procyonidae, Carnivora) and related taxa based on postcranial skeleton
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2018-05)
Procyonidae were the first northern placental carnivorans that reached the Neotropics. They are represented by two extinct genera: †Cyonasua and †Chapalmalania (late Miocene–early Pleistocene). Postcranial elements are ...
