Stegodontidae and Anancus: Keys to understanding dental evolution in Elephantidae

Quaternary Science Reviews, 2020
Abstract The dental evolution of Mammuthus during the Quaternary represents the ultimate level of adaptation to open habitats among all proboscideans. This is the end result of the increased trend in grazing ability in Elephantidae. The combination of mesiodistally flat molar plates and proal (from back to front) jaw movement allowed elephants to ...

A phylogenetic study of the Elephantidae (Proboscidea, Mammalia) is based on the cytochrome b mitochondrial gene: 31 terminals, that is, all known sequences, one non-elephantid proboscidean, the extinct American mastodon, and four outgroups. The data set includes 11 new sequences with the first published sequence of the forest African elephant, L.
