Item Chasmaporthetes kani, new species from China : with remarks on phylogenetic relationships of genera within the Hyaenidae (Mammalia, Carnivora). American Museum novitates ; no. 2632(New York, N.Y. : American Museum of Natural History, 1977) Galiano, Henry.; Frailey, David."A new species of Chasmaporthetes is described from deposits of early Pleistocene age in Shansi Province, People's Republic of China. The concept of Chasmaporthetes is extended to include 'Lycyaena' ('Euryboas') lunensis Del Campana, 1914 but not Euryboas bielawskyi Schaub, 1941. Within a cladistic framework, Chasmaporthetes is the sister group of Euryboas; Chasmaporthetes, Euryboas, and Lycyaena form the sister group of Hyaenictitherium, Hyaena, Pachycrocuta, and Crocuta"--P. [1].Item Review of some Carnivora (Mammalia) from the Thomas Farm local fauna (Hemingfordian, Gilchrist County, Florida). American Museum novitates ; no. 2610(New York, N.Y. : American Museum of Natural History, 1976) Tedford, Richard H.; Frailey, David."Species of the carnivore genera Cynelos (Amphicyonidae), Hemicyon (Ursidae), and Euoplocyon (Canidae) are recognized in the medial Hemingfordian Thomas Farm local fauna. In addition early Mustelinae are indicated by the ramus referred to Miomustela(?) by Olsen. The record of the latter and that of Hemicyon and Euoplocyon represent the earliest occurrences of each taxon in North America; all four records constitute the first recognized occurrence of each in eastern North America. The Thomas Farm Cynelos, Hemicyon and musteline are very closely related to European representatives of these taxa from the early Burdigalian, confirming previous correlations of the Burdigalian age with at least part of the Hemingfordian 'age' "--P.
