Late Miocene Indarctos punjabiensis atticus (Carnivora, Ursidae) in Ukraine with survey of Indarctos records from the former USSRABSTRACTThe detailed description of the latest Miocene (MN 13) maxillary fragment with P4-M2 of Indarctos bear from Ananiev in the southern Ukraine is given. The specimen is assigned to the subspecies I. punjabiensis atticus (Weithofer, 1888), comb. nov. A pronounced similarity revealed in tooth proportions and size between I. p. atticus and I. oregonensis from the North American late Miocene suggests I. oregonensis to be only a subspecies: I. punjabiensis oregonensis Merriam, Stock et Moody, 1916, comb. nov. The Indarctos records from the territory of the former USSR are reviewed. Gennady F. Baryshnikov: zmmu.msu.ru/rjt/articles/ther1_2%20083_089%20Baryshnikov.pdf

Thanks, this is an excellent entry. I have spent a lot of time looking for proper descriptions of fossils. Some species like Ursavus elmensis are quoted everywhere, but it is really hard to find a proper description of the fossil(s) that lead to the naming of the species.

Welcome and thanks for the nice words. To provide clarification, this section of the forum covers Miocene/Eurasia bears which includes Ursavus elmensis but also Agriotherium and Indarctos (collectively, fossil remains are found on the continents Africa, Asia, Europe, and North America). Forum wise, all prehistoric bears are separated chronologically and geographically.
