海兰利-锡瓦斯地区位于安纳托利亚高原中部（土耳其锡瓦斯），拥有许多化石遗迹，其中包括从两个不同地点收集的食肉动物化石。这项研究的目的是基于海兰利-锡瓦斯的化石标本，增进对土耳其食肉动物进化的了解。研究的收集表明存在以下类群：Hyaenictitherium wongii、Hyaenictitherium intuberculatum、Lycyaena dubia 和 Machairodus giganteus。 L. Dubia 是来自安纳托利亚的第一张唱片。通过与来自欧亚不同地区的其他材料进行比较，描述并确定了每个分类单元的材料。 9-7Ma 早或中图罗世时期。 (MN11-12)、灌木丛和开放的稀树草原生态系统栖息地可能对 Hayranli 地区丰富的动物多样性做出了贡献。此外，该地区的食肉动物，以生物年代学上的4个类群为代表，在进化过程中适应了这种生态。封闭生态系统地点 HAY-91 的 M. Giganteus 和开放生态系统地点 HAY-2 的 H. Wongii、H. Intuberculatum 和 L. Dubia 可能是调查区域最主要的食肉动物。
The locality of Hayranli-Sivas is situated in the central Anatolian plateau (Sivas, Turkey) and includes many fossil remains, including carnivores collected from 2 different spots. The aim of this study is to contribute to knowledge of carnivore evolution in Turkey based on the fossil specimens in Hayranli-Sivas. The studied collection indicates the presence of the following taxa: Hyaenictitherium wongii, Hyaenictitherium intuberculatum, Lycyaena dubia, and Machairodus giganteus. L. Dubia is the first record from Anatolia. The material of each taxon was described and determined by comparison with other materials from various Eurasian localities. During the Early or Middle Turolian 9-7 Ma. (MN11-12), shrubland and open savanna grassland ecosystem habitats might have contributed to rich faunal diversity in the Hayranli location. Moreover, carnivores of the area, represented by 4 taxa biochronologically, were adapted to this ecology during the evolutionary processes. M. Giganteus in closed ecosystem locality HAY-91 and H. Wongii, H. Intuberculatum, and L. Dubia in open ecosystem locality HAY-2 were probably the most dominant carnivores of the survey area.
