Qurliqnoria is an extinct genus of caprine bovid that inhabited Eurasia during the Neogene period.

Distribution

The species Q. bohlini and Q. chorakensis inhabited Turkey and are believed to represent a chronospecies succession.^[1]Q. cheni and Q. hundesiensis are known from China and likewise appear to represent a chronospecies succession,^[2] with fossils of the former dating to the Tortonian,^[3] while the latter's remains are from the Pliocene.^[4]
