Arctodictis is an extinct genus of borhyaenid sparassodont that lived in South America during the Miocene epoch.
Palaeobiology Arctodictis was a relatively cursorial animal, though not to the same degree as the related Borhyaena. It was a generalist carnivore. Among mammalian carnivores of the Santa Cruz Formation, Arctodictis munizi was the largest in body mass, and it also had the largest typical prey size. References
