Buisnictis is an extinct genus of skunk from Pliocene North America,[1] ranging all the way from Washington to Baja California. There are currently four accepted species: Buisnictis breviramus, Buisnictis schoffi, Buisnictis burrowsi and Buisnictis metabatos.[2][3][4][5]
As of Wang, Whistler and Takeuchi, 2005,[6] Buisnictis was recovered as a more derived skunk, while in 2014 Wang, Carranza-Castañeda and Aranda Gómez suggested Buisnictis, specifically B. metabatos, may have been the ancestor of the crown pleistocene skunks.[5]
