Taxonomic remark Authority cited elsewhere as McKenna et al. in Prothero & Schoch, 1989. From Holbrook, 2014: analysis is performed combining data from all three previous studies,
including modifications based on the present study. Reanalyses of the three previous studies give conflicting results regarding
the issue of perissodactyl ancestry, placing Radinskya as sister taxon to perissodactyls, as sister taxon to a perissodactylphenacodontid clade, or as part of a polytomy with perissodactyls and paenugulates. The results of the new analysis (1) place perissodactyls closer to Radinskya than to phenacodontids; (2) place Hyracoidea and Proboscidea (i.e., Paenungulata) as sister taxa to Perissodactyla; (3) do not support inclusion of Radinskya in Phenacolophidae.
