摘要 | The charismatic sabretooth cat Amphimachairodus has numerous but largely fragmentary records across late Miocene deposits of Africa, Eurasia and North America. The genus has a complex taxonomic history, and the majority of Amphimachairodus materials come from isolated localities, often studied without stratigraphic context. Here, we analyse the long, continuous records from the classic Chinese Baode strata, which produce Amphimachairodus throughout the section, and demonstrate that an A. palanderi-horribilis chronospecies succession represents a continuum of in situ anagenetic evolution of increasing size. We then synthesise chronological occurrences of Amphimachairodus from all Holarctic records and reframe their evolution as a case of chronospecies succession. Two parallel anagenetic lineages are evident: a Eurasian A. giganteus-palanderi-horribilis chronospecies succession and second, a North American A. coloradensis-alvarezi chronospecies succession following an immigration event in the early Hemphillian. In addition to greater hypercarnivory evidenced by dental specialisation, the Eurasian lineage shows a trend towards a large body size, whereas the North American lineage decreases in size. We take this opportunity to describe materials of Amphimachairodus alvarezi from Yepomera (latest Hemphillian) in the state of Chihuahua, Mexico, and previously undescribed materials from San Miguel de Allende Basin. We review taxonomic status of Chinese A. horribilis and related taxa. |
