}} Metasinopa is an extinct genus of hyainailourid that lived during the Eocene to Early Oligocene in northern Africa. TaxonomyAlthough Metasinopa fraasi is the only unambiguous species of the genus, the early Miocene species Metasinopa napaki from Uganda was originally assigned to Metasinopa by Savage (1965), but was later moved to Paracynohyaenodon by van Valen (1967), and is now assigned to the Miocene Anasinopa, as A. napaki.[1] "Sinopa" ethiopicus has been assigned to Metasinopa following Savage (1965), but may be its own genus considering its younger age relative to M. fraasi.[2] References1. ^Jorge Morales; Martin Pickford, 2017.
