摘要	Plesiohipparion is a genus of hipparionine horses that first appears in the latest Miocene of SW Tibet and becomes a common equid in the Pliocene of China. Plesiohipparion is distinct from the late Miocene clades Hippotherium, Hipparion, Cremohipparion and Sivalhippus and is related to the Chinese Proboscidipparion and African Eurygnathohippus. Plesiohipparion extended its range into Turkey, southwest Europe and Arctic Canada during the Pliocene. Plesiohipparion shanxiense n. sp. is the largest, and at the same time the youngest species of the genus. Plesiohipparion shanxiense n. sp. is most closely related to the earlier, smaller species Plesiohipparion houfenense differing in size, length of snout, length of the cheek tooth row, lack of any preorbital facial structures and elongate, narrow structure of the I3. Whereas Plesiohipparion likely originated in China, it dispersed westward to Turkey and Spain. Plesiohipparion is likely the sister taxon of the African Eurygnathohippus based on a number of shared-derived characters. Plesiohipparion shanxiense n. sp. would appear to be restricted to China and the terminal species of this clade.
