Guloninae[2][3] is a subfamily of the mammal family Mustelidae distributed across Eurasia and the Americas. It includes martens and the fisher, tayra and wolverine.[2][3] These genera were formerly included within a paraphyletic definition of the mustelid subfamily Mustelinae.[4]
Most gulonine species are arboreal to a degree. Some of the fashion furs come from this subfamily, i.e. sable, marten.[5]
