与北京人有密切关系的犬类遗骸被描述为犬科动物，后更名为可变狼疮和中华犬科动物，并最终归还了原来的名称。1972年。在中国，就像在北美一样，在已知的最早的犬类和那些被命名为熟悉犬类的犬类之间有一个明确的时间间隔。现代中国狼(C.lupus Chanco)的下颌存在一个诊断家犬的形态特征，即上升支冠突向后的尖端。这一特征将从饮食和进化的角度进行讨论。
Canid remains found in close association with Homo erectus pekinensis (Peking Man) was described as Canis sp., later renamed C. lupus variabilis and C. sinensis and finally given back the original designation Canis sp. in 1972. In China, as in North America there is a definite temporal hiatus between the earliest known Canis and those designated C. familiaris. One morphological feature diagnostic of domestic dogs is present in the mandible of modern Chinese wolves, C. lupus chanco, i.e., the turned back apex of the coronoid process of the ascending ramus. This feature is discussed in relation to diet and from an evolutionary point of view.
