Perameles bowensis is an extinct Pliocene-aged species of bandicoot. Fossils have been found in the Wellington Caves of New South Wales.[1] The bandicoot was about 20 centimeters long.[2] It is believed to have gone extinct in the Late Pliocene.
It is probably most closely related to P. sobbei, a Pleistocene-aged bandicoot from Queensland.[2][3][4]
