The \*Viverra\* and \*Hystrix\* of Kurnool probably provide an evolutionary stage between the Siwalik representatives and existing forms of those genera. Possibly the existing \*Sus cristatus\* was derived from the Siwalik \*Sus falconeri\* which may have given rise to the extinct \*Sus karnuliensis\*. This group of pigs has also extended into Africa.
