Circamustela bhapralensisSankhyan, Abbas, Jasinski, Khan & Mahmood, 2025 DOI: doi.org/10.1007/s10914-025-09749-4 www.harrisburgu.edu x.com/StevenJasinski Art...
Circamustela bhapralensisSankhyan, Abbas, Jasinski, Khan & Mahmood, 2025 DOI: doi.org/10.1007/s10914-025-09749-4 www.harrisburgu.edu x.com/StevenJasinski Artwork by Sergey KrasovskiyAbstractNewly collected fossil carnivoran material from the Haritalyangar and Nurpur Middle Siwalik sequences of Himachal Pradesh (India) include at least five taxa and two new species including Mustelidae (‘Martes’ lydekkeri, Circamustela bhapralensis sp. nov., Mustelidae indet.), Viverridae (Vishnuictis plectilodous sp. nov.), and Felidae (indeterminate basal Felinae). These findings include the first upper jaw material of ‘Martes’ lydekkeri, a rare mustelid known only from lower jaw specimens, suggesting potentially closer relationships with European mustelids. Additionally, we report the first identification of Circamustela from the Siwaliks of the Indian subcontinent, despite nearly two centuries of fossil collection in the region. This material represents a new species Circamustela bhapralensis sp. nov. Circamustela, originating in Europe, eventually migrated to the Indian subcontinent before its extinction, and the smaller body size of the new species may suggest a trend toward decreasing body size in this taxon. Fossil viverrid material also represents a new species, Vishnuictis plectilodous sp. nov., the youngest species yet known for the genus. This new material implies an increase in morphological complexity in the m1 of these viverrids, potentially also suggesting an increase in dietary diversity within this lineage. The new viverrid species may also represent the largest viverrid yet known. Mandibular material of a feline is also described, providing further information on the biodiversity of the fossil carnivorans in the region. These new specimens add important information to our knowledge of the ancient biodiversity of the region, the evolutionary history of several carnivoran mammals, and the carnivoran guild of southern Asia.Keywords: Carnivora, Felidae, Haritalyangar, India, Mustelidae, Neogene, Siwaliks, ViverridaeCircamustela bhapralensis sp. nov.Vishnuictis fossil comparisons.a–c.
