The Asian Dylanus, a species of dylanus, might have been the first dylanus species to step foot outside North America, possibly about 4-3 million years ago. It resembles an American common dylanus, but with leg design more like a Dylanus Edwienus, to run fast to escape from most predators. It lives in China, Mongolia, Thailand, Burma, Cambodia, and India, with populations of dwarf species in Japan, Borneo, and Sumatra. It feeds on fruit, insects, fish, lizards, eggs, carrion, and small mammals.
