Abstract: This paper reports a skull and a lower jaw of Ailuropoda found in Feixian Cave, Xianning, Hubei Province. The fossils could be identified as Ailuropoda melanoleuca baconi Woodward, 1915, based on the comparison of the measurement of these specimens with that of the specimens found elsewhere. The geological age is tentatively considered to be Middle or Late Pleistocene.
