Genera

Pantherinae is a subfamily within the family Felidae which was named and first described by Reginald Innes Pocock in 1917.[2] The Pantherinae and the Felinae diverged from a common ancestor 11.5 to 10.8 million years ago.[3][4]

Characteristics

The members of the Pantherinae have an imperfectly ossified suspensorium of the hyoid apparatus. It is connected to the base of the base skull by an elastic tendon, which provides mobility to the larynx.[2] They have a single, rounded, vocal fold with a thick mucosal lining, a large vocalis muscle, and a large cricothyroid muscle, with long and narrow membranes. The vocal fold is longer than 9 mm (0.35 in). This structure of the larynx enables them to roar,[5] with the exception of the Neofelis genera[6] and the snow leopard.[7]

Their rhinarium is flat, and, at most, only barely reaches the dorsal side of the nose. The area between the nostrils is narrow, and not extended sidewards, as in the Felinae.[8]

Classification

Pocock originally defined the Pantherinae as comprising the genera Panthera and Uncia.[2] Today, Uncia has been subsumed to Panthera; and the Pantherinae also includes the genus Neofelis.[9]

Living genera

The following table shows the extant taxa within the Pantherinae, grouped according to the traditional phenotypical classification.[9] Estimated genetic divergence times of the genotypical pantherine lineage are indicated in million years ago (mya), based on analysis of autosomal, xDNA, yDNA and mtDNA gene segments;[3] and estimates based on analysis of biparental nuclear genomes.[4]

Evolution

The Felidae originated in Central Asia in the Late Miocene, with the Pantherinae diverging about 11.5 to 10.8 million years ago.[3][4] Several fossil Panthera species were described:

There is evidence of distinct markers for the mitochondrial genome for Felidae.[35][36]

Results of a DNA-based study indicate that the tiger (Panthera tigris) branched off first, followed by the jaguar (P. onca), the lion (P. leo), then the leopard (P. pardus) and snow leopard (P. uncia).[37]

Felis pamiri, formerly referred to as Metailurus, is now considered a probable relative of extant Pantherinae.[38]
