| A new felid (Fissipeda, Mammalia) from the Middle Pleistocene of Morocco: _Lynx thomasi_ n. sp | |
| 2009 G‚obios (13): 441-444 | |
The site known as Thomas quarry III (Cassablanca, Morocco) yielded, together with a middle Pleistocene (Tensiftian) fauna, the lower jaw of a lynx, _Lynx thomasi_ n. sp., whose dentition is characterized by high and complex premolars, and a very long carnassial. This new species might be descended from post-villafranchian European lynxes. |
