Using GIS to assess FAUNMAP and determine geographic range characteristics of mammoths and mastodons, Great Lakes, USA [PDF]
During the Terminal Pleistocene, many now extinct megafauna roamed across North America. Two of the most widely studied genera from this time period are Mammut (or mastodons) and Mammuthus (or mammoths).

Ungulate biomass across a rainfall gradient: a comparison of data from neotropical and palaeotropical forests and local analyses in Mexico [PDF]
Using a data set from 36 studies, we evaluated variation in ungulate biomass across a rainfall gradient using polynomial models, aiming to: (1) compare neotropical and palaeotropical dry and wet forests as well as African savannas; and (2) evaluate the ...

Reconstructing the Evolution of North American Gomphotheres (Mammalia, Proboscidea) through Craniomandibular Characters [PDF]
The family Gomphotheriidae is the “waste basket” of proboscidean groups. Widely accepted as paraphyletic, gomphotheres are characterized by bunolophodont molars and extreme morphological variability.

On the Phylogenetic Relationships Among Paenungulata and Within Elephantidae as Demonstrated by Molecular and Osteological Evidence [PDF]
Paenungulata (=PAEN). A total of 182 non-dental morphological characters from 100 species (79 extant, 21 extinct; 98 mammals and 2 non-mammals) was analyzed by two maximum parsimony tree building algorithms.
