Thylacines (Family Thylacinidae)

The Thylacinidae is an extinct family of diverse carnivorous, dog-like marsupials from the order Dasyuromorphia. The thylacine (Thylacinus cynocephalus) was the only species to survive into modern times, which officially became extinct in 1936, although some people claim that it still survives. All other thylacinids all lived in prehistoric times in Australia.

†Badjcinus turnbulli (Early Oligocene)

†Maximucinus muirheadae (Middle Miocene)

†Muribacinus gadiyuli (Middle Miocene)

†Mutpuracinus archiboldi (Middle Miocene)

†Ngamalacinus timmulvaneyi (Lower Miocene)

†Nimbacinus dicksoni (Late Oligocene — Lower Miocene)

†Nimbacinus richi (Middle Miocene)

Thylacine (†Thylacinus cynocephalus) (Early Pliocene - 1936)

†Thylacinus macknessi (Upper Oligocene — Lower Miocene)

†Thylacinus megiriani (Upper Miocene)

†Thylacinus potens (Lower Miocene)

†Thylacinus rostralis

†Tjarrpecinus rothi (Upper Miocene)

†Wabulacinus ridei (Upper Oligocene — Lower Miocene)
