Taxonomic remark McKenna & Bell, 1997 list Adinodon in its own subfamily (Adinodontinae) within Didelphimorphia, but no containing family. From Averianov, 2015: Hershkovitz (1995) erected a new taxon, Adinodon pattersoni Hershkovitz, 1995, referred to a new subfamily Adinodontinae within the modern didelphimorphian family Marmosidae (=Didelphidae). ... Thus, according to Hershkovitz at least one of Trinity therians belongs to the crown group Marsupialia. ... [However] Turnbull (1995) presented in a poster form an attempt to attribute edentulous dentary fragments from the Antlers Formation to the described taxa. In particular, he was inclined to refer the holotype of Adinodon pattersoni (CNHM PM 583) to Holoclemensia. [Holoclemensiidae] ... In a now classical book on Mesozoic mammals (Kielan-Jaworowska et al. 2004) classified Trinity therians as “tribotherians,” or stem “boreosphenidans.” The term Boreosphenida is redundant (Rougier et al. 2007; Davis 2011b) and here I use the traditional concept of Tribosphenida (McKenna 1975). Three families, not referred to any order, have been recognized: Kermackiidae (Kermackia and Trinititherium), Pappotheriidae (Pappotherium), and Holoclemensiidae (Holoclemensia). The difference between the holotypes of K. texana and T. slaughteri are slight and may represent positional variation in teeth. Slaughteria was not referred to any family and its potential synonymy with Pappotherium has been noted. Atokatheridium was referred to Deltatheroida, family incertae sedis. Adinodon pattersoni was omitted from classification because it is indeterminate. [details]
