Composition of superordinal clades is as follows: Ameridelphia = Didelphimorphia + Paucituberculata; Australidelphia = Dasyuromorphia + Diprotodontia + Microbiotheria + Notoryctemorphia + Peramelina; Africana = Macroscelidea + Paenungulata + Tubulidentata; Altungulata = Paenungulata + Perissodactyla; Anagalida = Glires + Macroscelidea; Archonta = Chiroptera + Dermoptera + Primates + Scandentia; Cetartiodactyla = Artiodactyla + Cetacea; Epitheria I = all placentals except Xenarthra; Epitheria II = Pholidota + Xenarthra as sister-group to other placentals; Ferungulata = Carnivora + Cetartiodactyls + Perissodactyla; “Flying Primate” = Dermoptera + Megachiroptera + Primates; Glires = Lagomorpha + Rodentia; Paenungulata = Hyracoidea + Proboscidea + Sirenia; Tethytheria = Proboscidea + Sirenia; Ungulata I = Cetartiodactyla + Paenungulata + Perissodactyla + Tubulidentata; Ungulata II = Cetartiodactyla + Paenungulata + Perissodactyla; Volitantia = Chiroptera + Dermoptera. Additional placental clades that could not be accepted or rejected based on statistical tests include Insectivora, Artiodactyla, and Chiroptera. Among marsupials, Dromiciops + Diprotodontia and Notoryctes + Peramelina were evaluated but could not be accepted or rejected. Asterisks indicate significant at P = 0.05. KH-P, Kishino–Hasegawa test for parsimony; KH-ML, Kishino–Hasegawa test for maximum likelihood.
