Canis lupus (mammalia, canidae) from the late pleistocene deposit of avetrana (Taranto, Southern Italy)
Here we described the remains of Canis lupus from the bed 8 of Avetrana karst filling (Late Pleistocene; Taranto, Southern Italy). The studied specimens arc larger than those collected from the early Late Pleistocene Apulian localities and those referred to the recent Italian wolf. Moreover, the rem...
