Fossil History of the Panther (_Puma concolor_) and the Cheetah-like Cat (_Miracinonyx inexpectatus_) in Florida
1997  Bulletin of the Florida Museum of Natural History (42): 177-219

Fossils of the Florida panther or puma (Puma concolor) are reported from 15 late Pleistocene (Ranchobrean) sites and one Holocene archaeological site on the Florida peninsula (11 of these are unpublished records). This large cat was widely distributed in Florida during the late Pleistocene, from as far north as Columbia Country near the Georgia state line, throughout the northern and central portions of the state, along both the Atlantic and Gulf coasts, and as far south as Dade Country at the southernmost tip of the peninsula.
