In the latter case, the big cat forearm was accompanied by teeth, which are generally considered a gold standard for identifying new species.
The largest M. lahayishupup humerus fossils they found was more than 18 inches (46 cm) and 1.7 inches (4.3 cm) in diameter.
For comparison, the upper arm bone of an average modern adult male lion is around 13 inches (33 cm) in length.
US researchers named the ferocious feline Machairodus lahayishupup to honour the Cayuse people, on whose lands the original specimen was unearthed.

The researchers completed a painstaking comparison of seven uncategorized fossil specimens with previously identified fossils and bone samples from around the world to describe the new species. Their finding makes a case for the use of the elbow portion of the humerus - in addition to teeth - to identify fossils of large saber-toothed cats whose massive forearms enabled them to subdue their prey. ....
