Pliohyrax
''Pliohyrax'', a genus believed extinct since the Pliocene, is one of the larger hyracoids (the cavy-like group of animals most closely related to elephants and manatees). It grew to sizes greatly exceeding those of any living hyrax, though it was by no means the largest member of this family. Fossils of this Miocene, scansorial herbivore have been found in Afghanistan, France, and Turkey. In Spain, ''Pliohyrax graecus'' is among the large mammals species found in the Almenara site, deposited during the Messinian salinity crisis, together with ''Macaca'' sp., ''Bovidae'' indet., cf. ''Nyctereutes'' sp., and ''Felidae'' indet. ==References==
