Zygolophodon turicensis (Schinz, 1824) is a widely distributed species across Europe from the early to late Miocene; however, it is poorly documented in Turkey. A Zygolophodon turicensis mandible fragment, preserving the m1 and the m2, is described from the middle Miocene (MN6) Avdan locality, which is a carbonous level (southwestern Turkey). The Avdan Zygolophodon turicensis contributes to the understanding of the evolution of this species.

Zygolophodon turicensis（Schinz，1824）是从中新世早期到晚期在欧洲分布广泛的物种。但是，在土耳其文献很少。从中间中新世（MN6）Avdan地点描述了一个保留了m1和m2的Zygolophodon turicensis下颌骨碎片，该地方是含碳水平（土耳其西南部）。Avdan Zygolophodon turicensis有助于了解该物种的进化。
