Mammal Phylogeny Illustration

[Troodon]

Being a person who focuses on Dinosaurs found this simplified Mammal family tree illustration very interesting.  John does state that multituberclate lineage is missing.  Hey we are on that tree at least for now.

Nothing creates discussion (and even arguments) like posting a proposed phylogeny. These are often fun to zoom into and study to see which organisms are closely related to others. I do like how primates are just another radial among many and not some crowning peak as would have been shown in older illustrations.

 

Thanks for posting.

 

 

Cheers.
