摘要: A divided infraorbital foramen is an important morphological feature in lion taxonomy and has previously been considered to occur only the Asian lion, Panthera leo persica. Based on examination of 498 skulls from museum collections Europe southern Africa, we report for first time prevalence African lions, as well its occurrence tiger, P. tigris extinct Pleistocene European cave spelaea. The higher frequency this characteristic lions may have occurred after colonised Asia, can be characterising population. It not clear whether recent anthropogenic population bottlenecks influenced changes over last 200 years.
