Diagnosis
| Reference | Diagnosis | |
|---|---|---|
| D. S. Rovinsky et al. 2019 | large thylacinid; mesiodistal axis of P1 mesiobuccally oriented; M1 mesiodistally longer than wide; palatal fenestrae greatly reduced; absence of a diastema between P1–2; P2 longer than P3 and M1. Yates (2014) additionally notes that Thylacinus potens may be further distinguished from Thylacinus cynocephalus by: ventrally facing sulcus forming the ventral border of the root of the zygomatic arch on the maxilla; P2 longer than M1.
