Badjcinus
''Badjcinus turnbulli'' is an extinct thylacinid marsupial.〔Muirhead and Wroe, 1998.〕 Phylogenetic analysis shows that thylacines are a clade which does not include the dasyurids. ''Badjcinus'' was one of the most primitive members of its group, living 23 to 28 million years ago in the late Oligocene.〔 The generic name is from the Wanyi Aboriginal language "badj", 'expert hunter', and Ancient Greek "kynos", 'dog' ''Badjcinus'' was quite small, averaging in weight. It was a carnivore, probably eating small vertebrates and insects, as living ''Dasyurus'' species do today. The fossils were found at Riversleigh in north-west Queensland, Australia. Since other animals at Riversleigh were rainforest species, it is possible that ''B. turnbulli'' was arboreal, like ''Dasyurus maculatus''.〔 ==References==
