Revisiting proboscidean phylogeny and evolution through total evidence and palaeogenetic analyses including Notiomastodon ancient DNA [PDF]
Summary: The extinct Gomphotheriidae is the only proboscidean family that colonized South America. The phylogenetic position of the endemic taxa has been through several revisions using morphological comparisons.

First record of Notiomastodon platensis (Mammalia, Proboscidea) from Bolívia
Proboscideans are common constituents of the Quaternary megafauna in South America and their remains have been recovered over the entire continent; however, the records of Notiomastodon platensis are unknown in Bolivia, Guyana, French Guyana and Suriname. In this study, we describe the first record of Notiomastodon platensis from Bolivia.
