"A new species of Chasmaporthetes is described from deposits of early Pleistocene age in Shansi Province, People's Republic of China. The concept of Chasmaporthetes is extended to include 'Lycyaena' ('Euryboas') lunensis Del Campana, 1914 but not Euryboas bielawskyi Schaub, 1941. Within a cladistic framework, Chasmaporthetes is the sister group of Euryboas; Chasmaporthetes, Euryboas, and Lycyaena form the sister group of Hyaenictitherium, Hyaena, Pachycrocuta, and Crocuta"--P. [1].
