Indarctos; Miomaci (possibly). The taxonomy of these bears has variously placed some of the genera in other bear lineages such as Hemicyoninae and Ursavinae. [1] [2] Recent papers support their inclusion with giant pandas as members of Ailuropodinae based on diagnostic features like large cheek teeth; parastyle fourth premolar with an enlarged ...

Ailuropodinae is a subfamily of Ursidae that contains only one extant species, the giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) of China.The fossil record of this group has shown that various species of pandas were more widespread across the Holarctic, with species found in places such as Europe, much of Asia, North America and even Africa.
Ammitocyon shared this habitat with several other large carnivorans, each of them surpassing 100 kg in weight - the somewhat smaller bear dog Magericyon anceps, [5] the ursid Indarctos arctoides, [5] and the lion-sized saber-toothed cat Machairodus aphanistus. [5]
Arctoidea is a clade of mostly carnivorous mammals which include the extinct Hemicyonidae (dog-bears), and the extant Musteloidea (weasels, raccoons, skunks, red pandas), Pinnipedia (seals, sea lions), and Ursidae (bears), found in all continents from the Eocene, to the present. [2]
