MIDDLE PLEISTOCENE FOX FROM THE VALLPARADÍS SECTION (VALLÈS-PENEDÈS BASIN, NE IBERIAN PENINSULA) AND THE EARLIEST RECORDS OF THE EXTANT RED FOX

Rivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2021
Dentognathic remains of European Middle Pleistocene Vulpini are scarce and fragmentary. They have classically been attributed to several species, but many taxonomic and phylogenetic uncertainties remain. Here we describe a fox well-preserved maxilla with

Pleistocene Hominins as a Resource for Carnivores: A c. 500,000-Year-Old Human Femur Bearing Tooth-Marks in North Africa (Thomas Quarry I, Morocco).

PLoS ONE, 2016
In many Middle Pleistocene sites, the co-occurrence of hominins with carnivores, who both contributed to faunal accumulations, suggests competition for resources as well as for living spaces.

An overview of the Middle Pleistocene in the North Mediterranean Region

Alpine and Mediterranean Quaternary, 2021
The Middle Pleistocene was a crucial stage for the evolution of European mammals, a time when the majority of the modern taxa appeared in the continent for the first time. It is also in this interval that periodicity and intensity of glacial-interglacial cycles changed, an event that strongly impacted on Mediterranean marine and terrestrial ecosystems,
