Tribe Pseudarctini nov.
T y p e g e n u s. Pseudarctos SCHLOSSER, 1899 .
D i a g n o s i s. As in the Amphicyonini tribe, the molars tend to present a larger crushing surface, albeit displaying a different pattern with a greater mesiodistal length of the upper molars and buccolingual length in the lower molars, associated with a significant reduction of the carnassial teeth, and loss of the p4 distal accessory cuspid. Dehmicyon n. gen. is included as a basal form of this tribe.
