Vulpes qiuzhudingi is an extinct species of fox that lived during the Neogene period in the Himalayas. [2] It was primarily carnivorous. [3] The fossils, dating from the Pliocene epoch between 5.08 and 3.60 million years ago, were discovered in the Zanda Basin and Kunlun Mountains of Tibet.
Vulpes riffautae is an extinct species of fox from the late Miocene of Chad (approximately 7 ma). Fossils of V. riffautae potentially represent the earliest record of the dog family, Canidae, in the Old World. [1] V. riffautae was intermediate in size between Rüppell's fox (Vulpes rueppellii) and the fennec fox (V. zerda). The mandible is ...

(2022), representing the southernmost fossil ...
Vulpes skinneri is a species of extinct fox in the genus Vulpes [1] from the early Pleistocene, identified based on fossil remains dated to about 2 million years ago. [2] The species is known from a single partial skeleton discovered in the Malapa Fossil Site at the Cradle of Humankind World Heritage Site in South Africa and is associated with the fossil hominin remains of Australopithecus ...

These two fox species are found in the Western Hemisphere. Whole genome sequencing indicates that Urocyon is the most basal genus of the living canids. [8] Fossils of what is believed to be the ancestor of the gray fox, Urocyon progressus, have been found in Kansas and date to the Upper Pliocene, [9] with some undescribed specimens dating even ...
The North American red foxes have been traditionally considered either as subspecies of the Old World red foxes or subspecies of their own species, V. fulva.Due to the opinion that North American red foxes were introduced from Europe, all North American red foxes have been seen as conspecific with V. vulpes; [2] however, genetic analyses of global red fox haplotypes indicates that the North ...
