[a. F. thylacine, in mod.L. Thȳlacīnus (Temminck Monogr. de Mammalogie, 1827, I. 55), f. Gr. θύλακ-ος pouch + (app.) L. suffix -īnus, -ine1. (But some think that Temminck meant to include in the name Gr. κύων, κῠνός dog, and that it is short for *thȳlaco-cynus ‘pouched dog’, which is improbable. It had been previously described by Harris as Didelphys cynocephalus.)]
The native Tasmanian ‘wolf’ or ‘zebra-wolf’, Thylacinus cynocephalus, the largest of existing carnivorous marsupials (now very scarce or extinct).
