Diagnosis
ReferenceDiagnosis
A. W. Poust et al. 2022Anterior cutting edge of P4 expressed as sharp and distinct preparacristal blade, not reaching apex of paracone; anterior face of P4 flattened and nearly vertical giving the paracone a steep angle. Differs from: Maofelis and MA-PHQ 348 (undet. nimravid specimen housed at Muséum d’Histoire Naturelle Victor Brun, Montauban, France [39]) in infraorbital foramen posterior to P3, double-rooted P3, P3 width to length ratio 0.4–0.65; Maofelis, MA-PHQ 348, and ‘nimravines’ of [10] which includes barbourofelins, in reduced or absent P4 protocone, P4 metastylar blade length to paracone length ratio of 1.0–1.3, P3 crown height 48–70% that of P4; hoplophoneins (Hoplophoneus, Eusmilus and Nanosmilus) in the absence of parastyle on P4.
