Hipparionini

A larger form seems to be slightly more common but, except for its larger size and more robust
metapodials
, it does not display any significant difference, except that enamel plication is perhaps stronger (

A-C). The
premolars
are relatively slightly shorter than in the
C.
cf.
matthewi
. The size of the metapodials would fit several late Miocene Aegean species, and I prefer not to suggest any identification.
