Referred specimens —From JDNM-4:left calcaneum, JODA 4282; P2, JODA 6413. From JDNM-4*: left calcaneum, JODA 15283; lower premolar, JODA 2393.

Occurrence —JDNM-4, JDNM-4*.

Description —The two calcanea, JODA4282 (ap= 33.91 mm, t= 14.18 mm) and JODA 15283(ap= 36.8 mm, t= 17.55 mm), are similar in size especially when you take into account that JODA 4282 is significantly worn, which ac- counts for its smaller size. JODA 6413 is a large P2 with an anteroposterior length of 8.13 mm and a transverse width of 3.95 mm. It may represent a larger canid or belong to Tephrocyon . JODA 2393 has an anteroposterior length of 9.27 mm and a transverse width of 5.82 mm.
