Abstract

In this contribution we studied new specimens of Cladosictis patagonica (Metatheria, Sparassodonta) from the Middle Miocene Collón Cura Formation (Río Negro, Argentina). We reported here this taxon for the first time for this stratigraphic unit, analyzed the report considering the intraspecific variability, and discussed the finding in the context of other sparassodonts already known for the Collón Cura Formation.
