Except for larger size, the mandibles from the Pleistocene of Alaska do not differ from the extant Gulo living in the area today. Kurten and Rausch (1959) in their study of Alaskan and Fennoscandian wolverines noted that a significant difference was foimd between the two populations in the length of NP measiu-ed at the constriction. They found that the Recent specimens from Alaska had a more strongly constricted M^ than those from Scandinavia. This is not the case with the late Pleistocene Alaskan specimens—the NP shows less constriction than those from Scandinavia. One of their fossil specimens from Europe also showed this reduced constriction of M^ On a scat- tergram the specimens from Moonshiner Cave show nearly the same proportions as.
