pholidota การใช้
- The order Pholidota comprises the eight species of pangolin.
- Schlitter contributed the following sections to MSW3 : Order Macroscelidea, Order Tubulidentata and Order Pholidota.
- However, a recent phylogenetic analysis of Paleogene mammals supports the monophyly of Creodonta, and places them in Pholidota.
- The Carnivora, Creodonta, Pholidota, and a few other extinct orders are informally grouped together in the clade Ferae.
- It is thought " C . pholidota " is an opportunistic feeder, taking live prey or scavenging for food.
- More distant are the bats ( Chiroptera ) and ferae ( a common taxon of predators ( Carnivora ) and pangolins ( Pholidota ) ).
- In 1976, Eli Minkoff also used " Paratheria " for a placental superorder that included Edentata ( for the sloths, armadillos, and anteaters ) and Pholidota.
- Merrem considered it to be one of three groups of Pholidota ( reptiles ), the other two being Testudinata ( turtles ) and Squamata ( lizards and snakes ).
- Several groups have previously been suggested to have descended from the Cimolesta : the Pholidota ( which would have been regarded as a suborder of Cimolesta ), the Creodonta, and the Carnivora.
- ""'Orania pholidota " "'is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Muricidae, the murex snails or rock snails.
- Advocates of this newer system redefine Ferungulata as a clade within Laurasiatheria, comprising the larger portion of the former Ferungulata and including'true'ungulates ( Perissodactyla and Artiodactyla ), whales and Carnivora, with the addition of pangolins ( Pholidota ), but excluding Tubulidentata and paenungulates.
- In 1910, William King Gregory reviewed the interrelationships of mammals and placed edentates among other placentals, though he gave " Paratheria " as an alternative name for his superorder Edentata, which included Xenarthra and tentatively Pholidota ( pangolins ), Tubulidentata ( aardvarks ), and the fossil Taeniodonta.
- Recent studies from new remains found in Late Paleocene Mongolian strata lead to the assessment that " Ernanodon " is closely related to " Metacheiromys " within the taxon Palaeanodonta, which, in the study, was reaffirmed to be the sister taxon of Pholidota, the order of pangolins.
- To the surprise of the authors, their data led them to propose a clade that includes bats ( order Chiroptera ), carnivores such as cats and dogs ( order Carnivora ), horses and other odd-toed ungulates ( order Perissodactyla ) and pangolins ( order Pholidota ) as springing from a single evolutionary origin within the mammals.
