Abstract

A new genus and species of homolid from lower Oligocene (Rupelian) strata in the Ligure-Piemontese Basin (northern Italy) is introduced. Cherpihomola italica gen. nov., sp. nov. represents the first record of homolids from Oligocene deposits across Europe and extends the palaeogeographical distribution of extinct homolids.
