Abstract

This paper describes the maxillaries of adult specimens of saber-toothed cats Homotherium crenatidens (Fabrini, 1890) and Megantereon sp. from the Taurida Cave (Crimea, Late Villafranchian; age, 1.8–1.5 Ma). We discuss the morphometric variability in the morphology of the upper carnassials and the length of the С1–Р3 diastema.
