摘要 | The Pliocene fossil record of hipparionine horses in the Indian Subcontinent is poorly known. Historically, only one species, "Hippotherium" antelopinum Falconer & Cautley, 1849, was described from the Upper Siwaliks. Here, we present the first evidence of Eurygnathohippus Van Hoepen, 1930, a lineage hitherto only known from Africa, in the Upper Siwaliks during the late Pliocene. Morphologically, the South Asian Eurygnathohippus is most similar to Eurygnathohippus hasumense (Eisenmann, 1983) from Afar, Ethiopia, a species with a similar temporal range. Eurygnathohippus appears to have dispersed into South Asia from the west via the Levantine Corridor and the Middle East in the early Pliocene. The presence of this lineage in the Indian Subcontinent refines our understanding of equid evolution and biogeography in the region. |
