Updating the evolutionary history of Carnivora (Mammalia): a new species-level supertree complete with divergence time estimates
TL;DR: Together, the two carnivore supertrees remain the only complete phylogenetic estimates for all extant species and the new supertree, like the old one, will form a key tool in helping us to further understand the biology of this charismatic group of carnivores.
The role of morphological data in phylogeny reconstruction.
TL;DR: Parsimony, likelihood, and the roleof models in molecular phylogenetics: A like-lihood perspective on cladistic parsimony.
Molecular phylogeny of the carnivora (mammalia): assessing the impact of increased sampling on resolving enigmatic relationships.
TL;DR: This study analyzed 76 species of Carnivora using a concatenated sequence of 6243 bp from six genes, representing the most comprehensive sampling yet undertaken for reconstructing the phylogeny of this clade.

Phylogenetics, Taxonomy, and Historical Biogeography of Alligatoroidea
TL;DR: Parsimony analysis of 164 discrete morphological characters supports several previous hypotheses based on morphology and molecules that Alligatoroidea is a monophyletic alligatoroid lineage and the paraphyly of “Allognathosuchus” is indicated.

The phylogenetic relationships of basal archosauromorphs, with an emphasis on the systematics of proterosuchian archosauriforms
TL;DR: A new data matrix composed of 96 separate taxa and 600 osteological characters was assembled and analysed to generate a comprehensive higher-level phylogenetic hypothesis of basal Archosauromorphs and shed light on the species-level interrelationships of taxa historically identified as proterosuchian archosauriforms.
