Semigenetta

Semigenetta is an extinct genus of viverrid. It lived in Europe, China, and Thailand in the Miocene, and was very similar to the extant genus Genetta, but lacked a molar that Genetta still possesses.

Palaeoecology

At the Late Miocene site of Hammerschmiede, S. sansaniensis competed with "Martes" sansaniensis and with Alopecocyon goeriachensis and was the most hypercarnivorous out of the three.
