The remarkable Panthera pardus (Felidae, Mammalia) record from Equi (Massa, Italy): taphonomy, morphology, and paleoecology
Leopard remains are rare in the European fossil record, probably a consequence of its
solitary and elusive habits. Equi, dating back to Marine Isotope Stage 3 (MIS3), represents a …
