Classification of mammals : above the species level

Toward a Phylogenetic Classification of the Mammalia
TLDR
This short paper attempts to update certain aspects of my previous review by taking into account research published since 1969, as well as work being incorporated into a new classification of the Mammalia now being prepared which wall deal with all taxonomic levels down to the subgeneric level in essentially the same style as Simpson’s (1945) classification.

South America's earliest rodent and recognition of a new interval of mammalian evolution
THE mid-Cenozoic immigration of rodents and primates to South America (when it was widely isolated by oceans) represents a pre-eminent problem in the biogeographical history of placental mammals. The…

Fossil mammals from the "Mesaverde" Formation (late Cretaceous, Judithian) of the Bighorn and Wind River basins, Wyoming : with definitions of late Cretaceous North American land-mammal "ages".
TLDR
Comparisons suggest that the Judithian mammalian fauna of what was then coastal parts of the western interior was essentially homogeneous geographically, at least from southern Alberta to central Wyoming, and Judithian mammal faunas of the Rocky Mountains must be younger in age.
Stem Lagomorpha and the Antiquity of Glires
TLDR
The results support the hypothesis that rodents and lagomorphs radiated during the Cenozoic and diverged from other placental mammals close to the Cretaceous-Tertiary boundary.

Earliest Eutherian Ear Region: A Petrosal Referred to Prokennalestes from the Early Cretaceous of Mongolia
TLDR
The petrosal referred to Prokennalestes is intermediate in having a reduced anterior lamina and lateral flange, both of which are well developed in Vincelestes and essentially lacking in later eutherians and metatherians.
