Hyainailourinae
Hyainailourinae ("hyena-cats") is an extinct paraphyletic subfamily of hyainailourid hyaenodonts that lived in Africa, Asia, North America and Europe from the middle Eocene to middle Miocene.[5][6][7][8] They appeared in Africa about 47.8 Ma ago and soon after spread as far as East Asia.[9]
