Victor de Bonis : Wesbrook Talks
No full textWebcast sponsored by the Irving K. Barber Learning Centre. Back in the ‘80s when the Vancouver Canucks were searching for wins in a tough Smythe Division, Victor de Bonis could be found parking cars at the Pacific Coliseum. After a detour through accounting firm KPMG, de Bonis joined the Canucks operation in 1994, and has since seen various teams and ownerships come and go. Yet through perseverance, relationships and a dedication to winning, over the past two decades, de Bonis has helped turned the franchise into one of the National Hockey League’s most successful franchises. We heard how he got his start, and learn about the challenges he faced and opportunities he seized along the way. Wesbrook Talks is presented by Wesbrook Village and alumni UBC. It is designed to provide intimate opportunities to listen to and engage with prominent alumni in the community.

Adelpharctos Bonis 1971
No full textAdelpharctos Bonis, 1971 EMENDED DIAGNOSIS. — Cephalogalini n. tr. with a more cutting dentition than the other genera of the subfamily, m1 shorter relative to the premolar row with a less reduced metaconid and a talonid tapering backward. P2-3 with three roots, P4 short and robust, triangular shaped M1 with a metaconule more buccal relatively to the protocone than in other Cephalogalini n. tr. M1, hypometacrista joining the base of the metacone and with a modest linguo-distal cingulum. TYPE SPECIES. — A. mirus Bonis, 1971. OTHER SPECIES. — A. ginsburgi Bonis, 2011.Published as part of Bonis, Louis De, 2013, Ursidae (Mammalia, Carnivora) from the Late Oligocene of the " Phosphorites du Quercy " (France) and a reappraisal of the genus Cephalogale Geoffroy, 1862, pp. 787-814 in Geodiversitas 35 (4) on page 790, DOI: 10.5252/g2013n4a4, http://zenodo.org/record/453814
Cephalogalini de Bonis 2013
No full textTribe CEPHALOGALINI n. tr. TYPE GENUS. — Cephalogale Jourdan, 1962 by present designation. DIAGNOSIS. — Partially coming from the descriptions of Beaumont (1965), Bonis (1973), Hunt (1998), and Teilhard de Chardin (1915). Digitigrade Hemicyoninae containing several lineages of small (Early Oligocene) to medium sized (Late Oligocene-Early Miocene) primitive ursids (skull length of about 10-20 cm). Dental formula = I3/2-3, C1/1, P4/4, M2/3. Ŋe m2 has a metaconid larger or equal to the protoconid like in the Amphicynodontidae Simpson, 1945 but the Cephalogalini n. tr. are distinguished from them by the m1 which is larger relatively to the premolars and whose metaconid is reduced (open trigonid), trigonid is more bladelike and talonid has a robust elongated hypoconid continuing by a low crest which encloses the talonid basin and continues in the lingual side before gently joining the metaconid without any notch; sometimes a very small entoconid is present in the crest; m2 has a reduced or absent paraconid and a talonid similar to that of m1. Ŋere is an overall evolutionary trend toward an increasing of size, reduction of metaconid of m1 and correlative increasing distance between m1 paraconid and metaconid, increasing relative length of the m2 talonid. Some lineages may be distinguished by the size and shape of the lower premolars which can be laterally compressed and bladelike to somewhat robust and transversely widened depending on the lineage; p1 elongated and knoblike, posterior accessory cuspid often present in p2-3, generally present, although sometimes very small, in p4. No posterior accessory cusps on P1-3. P4 is short relative to the molars with a well developed, more or less posteriorly situated protocone and a short metastyle and sometimes with a very small parastyle. Low cuspidated M1 with postprotocrista joining directly the distal border, except in Adelpharctos Bonis, 1971, without any contact with the metacone thus the trigone basin is posteriorly open; there is a trend to a sub-quadrate occlusal outline with inflation of the metaconule; large lingual and variable buccal cingulum; M2 smaller and lower cuspidated than M1 with a variable occlusal outline from triangular to oval, buccal cusps being separated or quite fused; ursid basicranium with Type A bulla (Hunt 1974), well ossified, completely enclosing middle ear, with inflation of medial part of bulla in some species.

Cephalogale sp. 5 Bonis 2019
No full text<i>Cephalogale</i> sp. <p>(Fig. 3F)</p> <p>NEW MATERIAL. — Piece of hemi-mandible, UP MGB 26, with p3, alveoli of c, p1, p2 and p4.</p> <p>DESCRIPTION AND COMPARISON</p> <p>The mandible (Fig. 3F 1, F 2) belongs to a medium sized carnivoran. The corpus height under p3 is 19.7 mm and the thickness 4.25 mm. There are two mental foramina, one under the roots of p2, another under the distal root of p3. The</p> <p> size of the tooth (L = 8.45, w = 4.25) is within the range of <i>Cyonarctos dessei</i> Bonis, 2013, with length = 7.6 to 11.1 mm and width 3.15 to 5.71 (Bonis 2013: table 1) but the shape is different. The profile of the crown is slightly asymmetrical, the distal part being larger than the mesial one. The buccal face is convex but the lingual one is separated into two parts by a vertical median pillar, with both parts being slightly concave. A weak cingulid runs along the lingual base and, to in a lesser extent, the buccal one, to distally enclose a small and very shallow talonid basin.</p> <p> The morphology of MGB 26 is far from that of the shearing premolars of the nimravids. It is the same, judging from the shape of P4, with the small amphicyonid <i>Goupilictis</i> Ginsburg, 1969. Thus, MGB 26 fits the Cephalogalini better. <i>Adelpharctos</i> Bonis, 1971 is larger. The p3 is missing in the holotype of the nominal species, but the shape and size of p4, large, high, and nearly symmetrical, may give an idea of the p3 morphology. However, the tooth is present in <i>A. ginsburgi</i> Bonis, 2011 and confirms the deduction. <i>Phoberogale</i> Ginsburg & Morales, 1995 displays a very low and elongate p3 with a more robust cingulid and a clear pacd. <i>Cyonarctos</i> Bonis, 2013 differs by the higher and more pointed p3 without cingulid and talonid basin. The closest genus seems to be <i>Cephalogale</i> with the closest species being <i>C. brevirostris</i> (Croizet <i>in</i> Blainville, 1845) (Blainville 1845: 122) and <i>C. gergoviensis</i> Viret, 1929. Thus we cannot provide a specific attribution, and then the fossil is identified as <i>Cephalogale</i> sp.</p>Published as part of <i>Bonis, Louis de, Gardin, Axelle & Blondel, Cécile, 2019, Carnivora from the early Oligocene of the ' Phosphorites du Quercy' in southwestern France, pp. 601-621 in Geodiversitas 41 (15)</i> on page 612, DOI: 10.5252/geodiversitas2019v41a15, <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/3694209">http://zenodo.org/record/3694209</a>
Mustelictis olivieri Bonis 1997
No full text<i>Mustelictis</i> aff. <i>olivieri</i> Bonis, 1997 <p>(Figs 4 C-E, G; 5F)</p> <p>TYPE SPECIMEN. — Holotype: skull, UP MGB60, by author designation; paratype: hemi-mandible, UP MGB 7.</p> <p>NEW MATERIAL. — Left m1, LPL11; left fragment of hemi-mandible, UP LPL12; right m1, UM VBOA 3-4; fragment of right hemi-mandible p2-p4, UM VD 12; left P4, VBO 494.</p> <p>REMARKS</p> <p>The holotype and paratype of the species come from Mas de Got (MP 22). A skull and a hemi-mandible (paratype) were figured by Bonis (1997: figs 1, 2). New research has recovered additional specimens in other localities.</p> <p>DESCRIPTION</p> <p>The premolars are present in UP LPL12 and UM VD12 and all of them have cutting mesial and distal edges. The p2 is dissymmetric, the mesial part being smaller than the distal</p> <p> one and having a more sloping mesial edge, the distal one finishing by a small upturned spur at its base. The p3, less dissymmetric than p2, displays a mesial spur; distally there is a small talonid with a small fovea surrounded by a low cristid; there is also a small pacd at mid-height on the distal edge (Fig. 4G 1, G 2). The p4 is similar to p3 but is larger. The carnassial is very similar to that of the type of <i>M</i>. <i>olivieri</i> but the talonid is less narrow. The m2 is larger than in the type in both absolute size and relative to m1; it has a complete trigonid with high protoconid and metaconid and small but clear paraconid, and a narrow talonid (Fig. 4B). The isolated P4 (VBO 494) figured by Peigné <i>et al.</i> (2014: fig. 22a) is close to that of the type specimen from Mas de Got, with a mesio-lingually elongate protocone finishing by a conic cusp, a buccal cingulum and a small mesial bulging representing a parastyle (Fig. 5F). These remains are close to the material of <i>M</i>. <i>olivieri</i> (Fig. 4F 1, F 2) but the small differences lead us to be cautious about the identification. They could be due to a small difference in the geological age between two localities of MP 22.</p>Published as part of <i>Bonis, Louis de, Gardin, Axelle & Blondel, Cécile, 2019, Carnivora from the early Oligocene of the ' Phosphorites du Quercy' in southwestern France, pp. 601-621 in Geodiversitas 41 (15)</i> on pages 614-615, DOI: 10.5252/geodiversitas2019v41a15, <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/3694209">http://zenodo.org/record/3694209</a>

Cyonarctos Bonis 2013, n. gen.
No full textCyonarctos n. gen. ETYMOLOGY. — From the Greek cyon (dog) and arctos (bear) for an ursid looking like a canid. TYPE SPECIES. — Cyonarctos dessei n. sp. by present designation. DIAGNOSIS. — Ŋat of the type species. DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS. — Adelpharctos differs by the larger size, the relatively higher trigonid and the short talonid of m1, the three rooted P2-P3 and the more V shaped M1. Cephalogale lacks a pacd in p2-p3, p4 is lower than the paraconid of m1, the premolar crowns more mas - sive, diastemas between p2-p3 and p3-p4. Phoberogale has lower and more elongated P2-P3 and p2-p4, and robust cingula and cingulids Filholictis n. gen. is more primitive with m1 shorter relative to the premolars and with its metaconid in contact with the paraconid, and a short m2.Published as part of Bonis, Louis De, 2013, Ursidae (Mammalia, Carnivora) from the Late Oligocene of the " Phosphorites du Quercy " (France) and a reappraisal of the genus Cephalogale Geoffroy, 1862, pp. 787-814 in Geodiversitas 35 (4) on page 790, DOI: 10.5252/g2013n4a4, http://zenodo.org/record/453814
