African ground pangolin (Smutsia - "Smuts's animal") is a genus of pangolins from subfamily Smutsiinae within family Manidae. It was formerly considered a subgenus of genus Manis.[4] Its members are the more terrestrial of the African pangolins.[5] In past, this genus was also present in Europe.[6]
Etymology
British naturalist John Edward Gray named Smutsia for South African naturalist Johannes Smuts (1808–1869),[7][8] the first South African to write a treatise on mammals in 1832 (in which he described the species Manis temminckii).
Taxonomy
- Subfamily: Smutsiinae (Gray, 1873) (large african pangolins)
- Genus: Smutsia (Gray, 1865) (african ground pangolin)
- Smutsia gigantea (Illiger, 1815) (giant pangolin)
- Smutsia temminckii (Smuts, 1832) (ground pangolin)
- †Smutsia olteniensis (Terhune, 2021)[9]
- Genus: Smutsia (Gray, 1865) (african ground pangolin)
