A review of the fossil record of North American turtles of the clade Pan-Testudinoidea
E Vlachos - Bulletin of the Peabody Museum of Natural History, 2018 - BioOne
Turtles of the clade Pan-Testudinoidea have a rich fossil record in North America, including

Paleogene Xenarthra and the evolution of South American mammals
Recent studies show Xenarthra to be even more isolated systematically from other placental
mammals than traditionally thought. The group not only represents 1 of 4 primary placental …

Influence of Tertiary paleoenvironmental changes on the diversification of South American mammals: a relaxed molecular clock study within xenarthrans

Reassessing the phylogeny and divergence times of sloths (Mammalia: Pilosa: Folivora), exploring alternative morphological partitioning and dating models
Phylogenetic relationships among sloths (Folivora) have been extensively studied in the
past few decades using maximum parsimony approaches. Recently, Bayesian phylogenetic …

An overview of the presence of osteoderms in sloths: implications for osteoderms as a plesiomorphic character of the Xenarthra
HG McDonald - Journal of Mammalian Evolution, 2018 - Springer
The presence of osteoderms in the skin of some extinct sloths and in cingulates (armadillos,
pampatheres, and glyptodonts) has often been considered a pleisomorphic character of the …
