Soergelia is a genus of extinct ovibovine caprine that was common across Europe, North America and Asia in the Pleistocene epoch.^[2]^[3]^[4]

Species include:

†Soergelia brigittae Kostopolous, 1997^[5]
†Soergelia minor Moyà-Solà, 1987. Found in Italy.
†Soergelia intermedia Crégut-Bonnoure & Dimitrijević, 2006. Found in Macedonia.^[6]
†Soergelia elisabethae Schaub, 1951^[1]
†Soergelia mayfieldi Troxell, 1915. Found in Texas.^[7]^[8]

Palaeoecology

δ¹³C, δ¹⁵N, and δ¹⁸O measurements from S. minor at the Early Pleistocene site of Venta Micena in southeastern Spain reveal it to have been a mixed feeder.^[9]
