Taxonomic remark Name given as Arctocyonia Van Valen, 1966 in Wikipedia (May 2022), the latter name given as a partial synonym in McKenna & Bell, 1997. From Halliday et al., 2015: Arctocyonidae was one of the two groups (the other being Oxyclaenidae) that was assigned to the most primitive groupings of ‘archaic ungulate’ – the Procreodi – by Matthew (1915). Simpson (1937) preferred to amalgamate Oxyclaenidae and Arctocyonidae, the latter taking precedence as the name for the whole group. McKenna & Bell (1997), however, placed Arctocyonidae within Procreodi once more. ... The arctocyonids are a primarily European group (Russell, 1964) which has variously been considered ancestral to Carnivora (Van Valen, 1969), specifically to miacid carnivorans (see Van Valen, 1978), to artiodactyls (Rose, 1996), and as part of the ancestral ungulate group (Kondrashov & Lucas, 2004; De Bast & Smith, 2013).
