''Nimbacinus richi'' lived during the middle Miocene and has been found in deposits in Bullock Creek in the Northern Territory. N. richi is distinguished from Nimbacinus dicksoni from a well preserved holotype right dentary on the basis of dental morphology. N. richi was a carnivorous, quadrupedal marsupial in Australia. In appearance it resembled a dog with a long snout. Its molar teeth were specialized for carnivory; the cups and crest were reduced or elongated to give the molars a cutting blade. ==External links== *(Natural Worlds ) *(MURRAY. P AND MEGIRIAN.
