The fetomaternal interface in the placenta of three species of armadillos (Eutheria, Xenarthra, Dasypodidae) [PDF]
Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2012 Background Placental characters vary among Xenarthra, one of four supraordinal clades of Eutheria. Armadillos are known for villous, haemochorial placentas similar to humans. Only the nine-banded armadillo has been well studied so far.
