Additional information / Summary

Die Familie Nimravidae gehört zu den katzenartigen Karnivoren. Sie entstand im Eozän und existierte bis ins Pliozän. Früher für Vorfahren der Katzen (Felidae) gehalten, gelten sie heute als deren Schwestergruppe – ihre katzenartigen Merkmale entwickelten sich durch konvergente Evolution. Einige Arten der Nimravidae besaßen mächtige Säbelzähne, welche an jene der Säbelzahnkatzen (Machairodontinae) erinnern – die Nimravidae werden deshalb auch als Scheinsäbelzahnkatzen bezeichnet.
