Carnivoramorpha
Carnivoramorpha ("carnivoran-like forms") is a clade of placental mammals of clade Pan-Carnivora from mirorder Ferae, that includes the modern order Carnivora and its extinct stem-relatives.[4][5]

General characteristics
The common feature for members of this clade is the presence of the carnassial teeth. The carnassial teeth of the Carnivoramorpha are upper premolar P4 and lower molar m1.[6]

Classification and phylogeny
Traditional classification
- Clade: Carnivoramorpha (Wyss & Flynn, 1993) [Carnivora + all basal clades to Carnivora, but without Creodonts]
- Order: Carnivora (Bowdich, 1821) (carnivorans)
- Suborder: Caniformia (Kretzoi, 1943) ("dog-like" carnivorans)
- Suborder: Feliformia (Kretzoi, 1945) ("cat-like" carnivorans)
- Incertae sedis:
- Genus: †Palaeogale (von Meyer, 1846)
- Superfamily: †Miacoidea (Cope, 1880)
- Family: †Miacidae (Cope, 1880)
- Family: †Viverravidae (Wortman & Matthew, 1899)
- Incertae sedis:
- †"Sinopa" insectivorus (Cope, 1872)
- Incertae sedis:
- Genus: †Ravenictis (Fox & Youzwyshyn, 1994)
- †Carnivoramorpha sp. (UALVP 31176) (Fox & Youzwyshyn, 1994)
- Order: Carnivora (Bowdich, 1821) (carnivorans)
Revised classification
Recent phylogenetic studies indicate that the superfamily Miacoidea and family Miacidae are paraphyletic, with "miacids" being more closely related to carnivorans than to viverravids. In 2010 Flynn, Finarelli & Spaulding named a new clade Carnivoraformes within Carnivoramorpha, containing carnivorans and "miacids" but not viverravids.[7] The authors defined Carnivoraformes as the clade containing Carnivora and all taxa that are more closely related to Carnivora (represented by Canis lupus) than to viverravids (represented by Viverravus gracilis).
