Comment:
Comments: Simpson (1945) also included Eupleres and Fossa, following Pocock (1915b). Pocock (1933d) and Gregory and Hellman (1939) placed Cynogale in the monotypic Cynogalinae, although both recognized the close relationship of Cynogale to other hemigalines. Placed in Hemigalinae by Simpson (1945) and Ellerman and Morrison-Scott (1951)
