The suid remains from Alhambra (Madrid, late Aragonian, Middle Miocene; MN6, zone F) are described and assigned to Conohyus simorrensis. Conohyus is well known in Spain from late MN5, or zone E, MN7+8, or zone G, and MN9. The material from Alhambra fills the gap in the Iberian record. The Iberian record shows that Cononhyus became larger, with relatively larger posterior molars and with reduced premolars. This evolution occurred in a large area that extends from westem Europe to Anatolia. We present an overview of the European and Anatolian localities with Conohyus.
