Early Eocene fossils suggest that the mammalian order Perissodactyla originated in India

open access: yesNature Communications, 2014
Cambaytheres (Cambaytherium, Nakusia and Kalitherium) are recently discovered early Eocene placental mammals from the Indo-Pakistan region. They have been assigned to either Perissodactyla (the clade including horses, tapirs and rhinos, which is a member

Evolutionary Affinities of the Order Perissodactyla and the Phylogenetic Status of the Superordinal Taxa Ungulata and Altungulata

open access: yesMolecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 1997
Contrary to morphological claims, molecular data indicate that the order Perissodactyla (e.g., horses, rhinoceroses, and tapirs) is neither part of the superordinal taxon Paenungulata (Sirenia, Proboscidea, and Hyracoidea) nor an immediate outgroup of ...

Chromosome Evolution in Perissodactyla

Cytogenetic and Genome Research, 2012
Comparative painting has provided a wealth of useful information and helped to reconstruct the pathways of karyotype evolution within major eutherian phylogenetic clades. New data have come from gene localizations, BAC mapping and high throughout sequencing projects that enrich and provide new details of genome evolution.

Phylogenetics of Perissodactyla and Tests of the Molecular Clock

Journal of Molecular Evolution, 2000
Two mitochondrial genes, the protein-coding cytochrome c oxidase subunit II (COII) gene and a portion of the 12S rRNA gene, were used for phylogenetic investigation of the mammalian order Perissodactyla. The primary objective of the study was to utilize the extensive fossil record of perissodactyls for calibrating molecular clocks and comparing ...

Molarization of the premolars in the Perissodactyla.

Proceedings of the Zoological Society of London, 1952
SUMMARY. Molarization of the premolars in perissodactyls is reviewed in the light of that of the milk‐molars. The premolar patterns are closely related to those of the milk‐molars, the closest resemblance being shown, in most forms, to the milk‐molar that the premolar replaces. In a few Eocene forms, however, the premolars seem rather to resemble milk‐

Origins of spondyloarthropathy in Perissodactyla.

Clinical and experimental rheumatology, 2002
Spondyloarthropathy has clearly been documented as not limited in occurrence to humans. Transmammalian in nature, it is of interest to understand the antiquity, and perhaps the origins, of this disorder in animal groups sufficiently represented in the skeletal record.Fossil and recent skeletons of perissodactylae from North America were systematically ...
