About: Bootherium

An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Bootherium (Greek: "ox" (boos), "beast" (therion)) is an extinct bovid genus from the middle to late Pleistocene of North America which contains a single species, Bootherium bombifrons. Vernacular names for Bootherium include Harlan's muskox, woodox, woodland muskox, helmeted muskox, or bonnet-headed muskox. Bootherium was one of the most widely distributed muskox species in North America during the Pleistocene era. It is most closely related to the modern muskox, from which it diverged around 3 million years ago, it is possibly synonymous with Euceratherium, although this is uncertain.

  • Der Helm-Moschusochse (Symbos = Bootherium cavifrons) war eine Hornträger-Art des Pleistozän Nordamerikas und war mit dem Moschusochsen (Ovibos moschatus) verwandt.Symbos cavifrons wird heute von den meisten Wissenschaftlern für die einzige Art der Gattung Symbos gehalten. Bootherium bombifrons bzw. Bootherium sargenti, die ursprünglich als eigene Arten beschrieben wurden, gelten heute in aller Regel als Weibchen von Symbos cavifrons. (de)
  • Bootherium bombifrons, connu aussi sous le nom de Bœuf musqué casqué, Boeuf musqué d’Harlan, ou encore Bœuf musqué des bois, est une espèce éteinte de Caprinae endémique de l’Amérique du Nord, qui faisait partie de la Mégafaune du Pléistocène. Cette espèce a disparu il y a environ 10 000 ans. Elle est apparentée au bœuf musqué actuel qui vit dans la toundra canadienne. (fr)
