Extinct genus of mammals
Qurliqnoria is an extinct genus of caprine bovid that inhabited Eurasia during the Neogene period .
Distribution
The species C. bohlini and C. chorakensis inhabited Turkey and are believed to represent a chronospecies succession.[ 1] C. cheni and C. hundesiensis are known from China and likewise appear to represent a chronospecies succession,[ 2] with fossils of the former dating to the Tortonian,[ 3] while the latter's remains are from the Pliocene.[ 4]
