PARAHIPPUS
Below are items of Parahippus leonensis, Late Early
Miocene,
all from North Florida.Parahippus leonensis was the general ancestor for the great Miocene
adaptive radiation of advanced members of the Equidae (Hulbert and MacFadden,
1991). This radiation resulted in three major groups or clades of horses: the
equins, which include the living genus Equus; the protohippins; and the
hipparionins, which include Neohipparion, Cormohipparion, and
Nannippus. "Pony Express," vol. 12, no.1, 1st Half 2003.
