McKenna and Bell (1997 ) regarded the clade as a suborder of their order Cimolesta, but no convincing evidence has been presented to associate tillodonts with any other group within Cimolesta except for Pantodonta ( Gazin, 1953 ; Chow and Wang, 1979 ; Lucas, 1993 ), and even there the ties are based...

This hypothesis has since been reiterated by McKenna and Bell (1997) , with pantodonts, tillodonts (including the enigmatic Deltatherium Cope, 1881 ), taeniodonts, palaeoryctids, and a number of other seemingly disparate (anatomically and phylogenetically) groups comprising the order Cimolesta.

... also bear on the timing of placental origins: Leptictida and Cimolesta. Leptictids were first described as crown placentals and are formed of diverse Cretaceous to Oligocene taxa, with ongoing debate on the group’s composition (Hooker 2013 ).

Although differing in details, a number of workers (e.g., Eberle 1999 ; Rook et al. 2010 ; Rook and Hunter 2011 ) subsequently concluded that the ancestry of taeniodonts is to be found among the cimolestids. Similarly, organization of most...
