Pholidotamorpha ("pangolin-shaped") is a clade of mammals that includes the orders Palaeanodonta and Pholidota (the pangolins). In the past both orders were formerly classified with various other orders of ant-eating mammals, most notably Xenarthra, which includes the true anteaters, sloths, and the armadillos which pangolins superficially resemble. Newer genetic evidence, however, indicates their closest living relatives are the Carnivora with which they form the clade Ferae. Some palaeontologists, placing family Ernanodontidae in a separate suborder Ernanodonta of Cimolesta near Pholidota, have classified the pangolins in the order Cimolesta, together with several extinct groups indicated (†) below, though this idea has fallen out of favor since it was determined that cimolestids were no

  • Pholidotamorpha ("pangolin-shaped") is a clade of mammals that includes the orders Palaeanodonta and Pholidota (the pangolins). In the past both orders were formerly classified with various other orders of ant-eating mammals, most notably Xenarthra, which includes the true anteaters, sloths, and the armadillos which pangolins superficially resemble. Newer genetic evidence, however, indicates their closest living relatives are the Carnivora with which they form the clade Ferae. Some palaeontologists, placing family Ernanodontidae in a separate suborder Ernanodonta of Cimolesta near Pholidota, have classified the pangolins in the order Cimolesta, together with several extinct groups indicated (†) below, though this idea has fallen out of favor since it was determined that cimolestids were not placental mammals. A 2012 study from new remains found in Late Paleocene Mongolian strata have led to the assessment that Ernanodon is closely related to Metacheiromys within the order Palaeanodonta, which, in the study, was reaffirmed to be the sister taxon of Pholidota.

  • Pholidotamorpha zijn een groep van zoogdieren die de schubdieren (Pholidota) en de uitgestorven Palaeanodonta omvat. Het vormt samen met de Pan-Carnivora de Ferae binnen de placentadieren. De eerste vormen uit de Pholidotamorpha verschenen in het Paleoceen. De eerste schubdieren ontwikkelden zich tijdens het Eoceen. (nl)
  • Pholidotamorpha — це клада ссавців, що включає ряд панголіноподібних (Pholidota) і вимерлий ряд Palaeanodonta, який вважається сестринським до Pholidota. Нові генетичні дані вказують на те, що найближчими живими родичами Pholidotamorpha є хижі, з якими вони утворюють кладу Ferae. (uk)
