Unverified
Taxonomic remark From Flannery et al., 2022: Davis (2011) considered the molars of A. mahabo to be most similar to those of henosferids. Woodburne et al. (2003) otherwise disputed the concept of Australosphenida and regarded A. mahabo to be a basal eutherian. Unfortunately, UA 10602 is so incomplete that these key character states remain ambiguous, making it impossible to adequately classify A. mahabo to family-level. [details]
