Broiliana dehmi

Broiliana dehmi is an extinct species of procyonid, a member of the raccoon family, placed in the genus Broiliana. Beaumont and Mein described it in 1973, and the Paleobiology Database lists it with Broiliana nobilis in the extinct subfamily Broilianinae named by Dehm in 1950. The database holds the name without any dated fossil occurrence, so no age or locality is recorded for it there. The Wikipedia article on the family notes that some fossil procyonids lived in the Old World, whereas the living raccoons, coatis, ringtails, kinkajous and olingos are all American. For its ecology the database gives only a terrestrial environment, a scansorial habit and a diet of frugivore and carnivore, all carried over from related forms.
