Abstract:
A new genus and species of tapiromorph, Karagalax mamikhelensis, is described from the Eocene Mami Khel Formation of northwest Pakistan. The new species is known from adult and juvenile dentitions, juvenile skulls, and partial postcrania. It is the most primitive perissodactyl yet reported from Indo-Pakistan. The morphology of its lophodont molars indicates that Karagalax is a tapiromorph, and it is here included in the primitive family Isectolophidae. Karagalax is more derived (more lophodont) than North American isectolophids Systemodon and Cardiolophus or the Asian early Eocene Orientolophus and Homogalax wutuensis, and more primitive (less lophodont) than North American Homogalax and Isectolophus. It is distinct from the poorly known and enigmatic Indian isectolophid Sastrilophus. Karagalax lacks any derived features of the Deperetellidae, Helaletidae or Lophialetidae, including Kalakotia, a primitive lophialetid from the middle Eocene of northwest India. The partial postcrania of Karagalax, which include fragmentary humeri, femora, ulnae, tibiae and metapodials, show a combination of primitive and derived features and suggest that it was more cursorial than other basal tapiromorphs for which postcrania are known.A provisional analysis of the phylogenetic positions of Karagalax and Kalakotia supports the hypothesis that primitive perissodactyls dispersed to Indo-Pakistan, most probably by way of continental Asia. The evolutionary position of Karagalax is consistent with an early Eocene age for H-GSP Locality 300, as argued previously on the basis of other mammals.

Abstract:
Relationships among laurasiatherian clades represent one of the most highly disputed topics in mammalian phylogeny. In this study, we attempt to disentangle laurasiatherian interordinal relationships using two independent genome-level approaches: (1) quantifying retrotransposon presence/absence patterns, and (2) comparisons of exon datasets at the levels of nucleotides and amino acids. The two approaches revealed contradictory phylogenetic signals, possibly due to a high level of ancestral incomplete lineage sorting. The positions of Eulipotyphla and Chiroptera as the first and second earliest divergences were consistent across the approaches. However, the phylogenetic relationships of Perissodactyla, Cetartiodactyla, and Ferae, were contradictory. While retrotransposon insertion analyses suggest a clade with Cetartiodactyla and Ferae, the exon dataset favoured Cetartiodactyla and Perissodactyla. Future analyses of hitherto unsampled laurasiatherian lineages and synergistic analyses of retrotransposon insertions, exon and conserved intron/intergenic sequences might unravel the conflicting patterns of relationships in this major mammalian clade.

Abstract:
La radiation adaptative des Equoidea est encore mal comprise en raison notamment de la méconnaissance de la phylogénie de cette super-famille. La principale irrésolution de ces relations de parenté porte sur les pachynolophes, Equoidea européens rapprochés des Equidae ou des Palaeotheriidae. Pendant une grande part de l'Éocène, l'Europe est isolée et subit à la fin de cette période de profonds changements climatiques. Lors de la Grande Coupure son isolement s'achève, tandis que l'aridité du climat s'installe, et des faunes migrantes provoquent l'extinction de nombreux groupes endémiques. Un Equoidea européen basal, richement représenté par un matériel bien préservé permet d'appuyer une des hypothèses phylogénétiques les plus récentes. Cependant, les caractères couramment utilisés pour débattre de cette question n'apportent pas de réponse claire et définitive. Aussi, cette étude se propose de mener des investigations sur des régions encore peu explorées de ces animaux comme le neurocrâne, grâce à la microtomographie (CT scan), qui permet un accès non destructif aux structures (encéphale, pétreux, labyrinthe osseux, sinus). Outre l'intérêt phylogénétique, ces organes peuvent, de par leurs fonctions, receler un intérêt paléoécologique. Jusqu'à présent, peu d'études à large échelle ont porté sur ces structures chez les Perissodactyla, s'agissant pour la plupart de mentions anecdotiques. Comme préalable indispensable, une étude modèle a été réalisée sur un Equidae sauvage actuel afin de mieux appréhender la variabilité de ces structures méconnues. Pour la première fois, un large échantillon d'Equoidea européens a été scanné et leurs structures neurocrâniennes reconstruites en trois dimensions virtuelles. Ce sont au total 20 espèces qui ont été échantillonnées, couvrant l'évolution de ces animaux de leur origine à leur extinction, pendant plus de 20 millions d'années. Leurs crânes ont été scannés, leurs structures internes reconstruites, comparées et analysées au moyen de la cladistique. Une nouvelle hypothèse phylogénétique propose des relations de parenté intra-Equoidea et montre la pertinence des caractères neurocrâniens, tout en conduisant à envisager une étude plus vaste. Les Palaeotheriidae apparaissent comme un groupe très diversifié, notamment au regard des Equidae éocènes d'Amérique du Nord, et caractérisé par une évolution en mosaïque. Ils connaissent une évolution cérébrale précoce par rapport aux faunes contemporaines (Equidae, Cetartiodactyla, Carnivora), ce qui, via le développement de nouvelles stratégies adaptatives, pourrait expliquer partiellement cette grande diversification familiale. Un parallèle est envisagé avec l'évolution endémique des Notoungulata, qui semblent eux aussi montrer une complexification cérébrale précoce. Cependant, face à un environnement biotique et abiotique bouleversé (fin de l'Éocène et lors de la Grande Coupure), ces structures complexes impliquant un coût métabolique important et une trop grande spécialisation, avec en conséquence, moins de potentiel adaptatif, auraient pu les désavantager et les conduire à l'extinction<br>The Equoidea adaptive radiation still remains badly known, especially due to the ignorance of their phylogeny. The main indecision of these relationships concerns the pachynolophs, European Equoidea either approached to the Equidae or to the Palaeotheriidae. During a great part of the Eocene times, Europe was isolated, and, at the end of this period, has undergone strong climatic changes. That isolation ended at the « Grande Coupure » event, whereas an arid climate moved, and migrant faunas caused the extinction of many endemic groups. A basal European Equoidea, richly represented by well-preserved material, can support one of the latest phylogenetic hypotheses. However, commonly used characters to discuss this issue do not provide a clear and definitive answer.Therefore, this study aims to investigate on unexplored regions of these animals as the neurocranium through microtomography (CT), which allows access to non-destructive structures (brain, petrosal, bony labyrinth, and sinus).Furthermore phylogenetic interest these bodies may, through their functions, harbor paleoecological interest. Until now, few large-scale studies have focused on those structures in the Perissodactyla, with regard to most were anecdotal reports. As a prerequisite, a model study was performed on a wild current Equidae to better understand the variability of these unknown structures. For the first time, a large sample of European Equoidea has been scanned and their neurocranium structures virtually reconstructed in three-dimensions. A total of 20 species were sampled, covering the evolution of these animals from their origin to their extinction, for over 20 million years. Their skulls were scanned; their internal structures reconstructed compared and analyzed using cladistics. A new phylogenetic hypothesis provides intra Equoidea relationships and shows the relevance of neurocranium characters, while driving to consider a larger study. The Palaeotheriidae appears as a highly diverse group, particularly with regard to Eocene Equidae in North America, and characterized by a mosaic evolution. Their brain evolved earlier than that of contemporary faunas (Equidae, Cetartiodactyla, Carnivora); which may partially explain the strong diversification of that family, through the development of new adaptive strategies

Abstract:
O gênero Tapirus (Perissodactyla, Tapiridae) é de origem holártica e entre o Mioceno e Plioceno final é amplamente distribuído na América do Norte, Europa e Ásia. Os tapires aparecem na América do Sul após a formação do Istmo de Panamá, durante o Grande Intercâmbio Biótico Americano, Pleistoceno inicial - médio. Neste trabalho, é revisado o material tipo das espécies atribuídas ao gênero na América do Sul; descrito material inédito proveniente da Venezuela e Brasil; realizado estudo comparativo morfológico e morfométrico; e proposto hipóteses quanto à origem e filogenia dos tapires na América do Sul. A partir da revisão das espécies de Tapirus do Quaternário da América do Sul, foi possível considerar válidas as espécies: T. greslebini, T. rioplatensis, e T. mesopotamicus (todas para a Argentina); T. oliverasi (Uruguai); T. tarijensis (Bolívia); T. cristatellus e T. rondoniensis (Brasil). A análise morfométrica permitiu estabelecer dois morfótipos para as espécies fósseis sulamericanas com base no tamanho do dentário. Um morfótipo que está dentro da variação de tamanho de T. terrestris, constituído pelas espécies T. rondoniensis e T. mesopotamicus, e outro, um morfótipo maior, com tamanho superior ao máximo de variação encontrado em T. terrestris, como T.tarijensis, T. rioplatensis, T. greslebini, e alguns espécimes de T. cristatellus. O gênero Tapirus apresentou-se como um clado monofilético, sendo Nexuotapirus marslandensis seu táxon-irmão. Os tapires sulamericanos não formam um clado monofilético, sendo T. pinchaque o grupo-irmão dos demais tapires sul-americanos atuais e fósseis, bem como das formas derivadas norte-americanas; e T. cristatellus seria o táxon irmão do clado T. indicus + T. bairdii +T. polkensis + T. lundeliusi + T. haysii + T. veroensis. O resultado da análise filogenética sugere uma relação próxima entre os tapires sul-americanos e T. webbi, o que corrobora a hipótese de um evento de dispersão da América do Norte para a América do Sul durante o Mioceno. Por outro lado, nossos dados indicam um segundo evento de dispersão da América do Sul para a América do Norte, possivelmente a partir de uma forma proximamente relacionada a T. cristatellus, que teria dado origem às formas derivadas do sudoeste da América do Norte.<br>The genus Tapirus (Perissodactyla, Tapiridae) is of Holarctic origin and between the Miocene and late Pliocene is widely distributed in North America, Europe and Asia. Tapirs appeared in South America after the formation of the Isthmus of Panama, during the Great American Biotic Interchange, early – middle Pleistocene. In this work is reviewed the type specimen of the species assigned to the genus in South America; described new material from Venezuela and Brazil; conducted comparative morphological and morphometric study; and proposed hypotheses regarding the origin and phylogeny of South American tapirs. Based on the review of the species of Tapirus of Quaternary from South America, could be considered as valid species: T. greslebini, T. rioplatensis, and T. mesopotamicus (all from Argentina); T. oliverasi (Uruguay); T. tarijensis (Bolivia); T. cristatellus and T. rondoniensis (Brazil). Morphometric analysis allowed us to establish two morphotypes for the South American fossil species based on the size of the teeth. A morphotype which is within the size variation of T. terrestris, comprising the species T. rondoniensis and T. mesopotamicus, and another, larger one morphotype, much larger than the maximum of variation found in T. terrestris, as T. tarijensis, T. rioplatensis, T. greslebini, and some specimens of T. cristatellus. The genus Tapirus appeared as a monophyletic clade and Nexuotapirus marslandensis as its sister taxon. The South American tapirs do not constitute a monophyletic clade, since T. pinchaque is the sister group of other extant and fossil South American tapirs, and of the forms derived from North American; and T. cristatellus would be the sister taxon of the clade T. indicus + T. bairdii +T. polkensis + T. lundeliusi + T. haysii + T. veroensis. The result from phylogenetic analysis suggests a close relationship between the South American tapirs and T. webbi, which supports the hypothesis of a dispersal event from North America to South America during the Miocene. Moreover, our data indicate a second dispersal event from South America to North America, possibly from a form closely related to T. cristatellus, which would have resulted to the derived forms of southeast North America.

Muitas extinções dessa época são associadas às mudanças climáticas naturais, no entanto, as predições indicam que as alterações climáticas, ocasionadas pelas atividades antrópicas, serão uma das principais ameaças à biodiversidade no futuro. Em resposta às flutuações climáticas, as distribuições de algumas espécies podem sofrer mudanças ou, ainda, as espécies podem se deslocar para novas áreas adequadas. Contudo, isso dependerá de sua capacidade em dispersar e das características do ambiente. Assim, é fundamental identificar quais são as características que tornariam as espécies mais vulneráveis a essas mudanças. Nesse contexto, os Perissodactyla se mostraram um modelo adequado para testarmos nossas hipóteses, pois compreendem um grupo de grandes mamíferos herbívoros, extremamente ameaçados, que passaram por inúmeras mudanças ambientais desde a sua origem. Nosso principal objetivo foi avaliar a influência das alterações climáticas sobre os mamíferos do clado Perissodactyla, em uma escala temporal ampla, abrangendo desde o Quaternário (a partir do Último Interglacial) até o futuro (ano 2080). Utilizamos duas abordagens: i) a relação entre as características do nicho e a vulnerabilidade do clado no futuro; e ii) a influência do clima na distribuição de áreas ambientalmente adequadas, de Tapirus terrestris, no passado e no futuro. Para testar nossas predições nos baseamos na Modelagem de Nicho Ecológico, que tem sido uma das abordagens mais empregadas e relevantes para predizer as mudanças nas distribuições das espécies. Nós usamos diferentes conjuntos de modelos climáticos (paleoclimáticos, atuais e futuro) e procedimentos de modelagem. Nossos resultados indicam que os Perissodactyla apresentaram características de nicho distintas, e que espécies consideradas generalistas também podem sofrer negativamente os efeitos das mudanças climáticas. Além disso, grande parte das respostas das espécies foi idiossincrática. Outro ponto importante é barreiras podem ter limitar a dispersão dessas espécies a novas áreas ambientalmente adequadas, pois concluímos que várias espécies do clado ocorrem em áreas altamente ameaçadas pelas mudanças climáticas. Dentre os Perissodactyla, T. terrestris, se mostrou a espécie mais climaticamente generalista. Contudo, a avaliação da resposta da espécie em relação às diferentes mudanças climáticas, sugere que as condições mais críticas, que prevaleceram durante o Último Máximo Glacial, reduziram a extensão geográfica das áreas climaticamente adequadas para a anta, com uma subsequente expansão. Se o clima não foi um problema muito sério na história evolutiva da espécie, o desafio para a sua conservação hoje e no futuro podem ser bem maiores. Mesmo que a extensão da distribuição geográfica da anta em si não se altere, como uma resposta às alterações climáticas, predizer as mudanças da adequabilidade ambiental ao longo dessa distribuição nos auxiliará na priorização de áreas para a conservação da espécie. Dessa forma, o desaparecimento das condições climáticas e a emergência de novas áreas ambientalmente adequadas devem ser considerados em planos de manejo futuros, especialmente na criação de novas unidades de conservação tanto para T. terrestris quanto para os demais Perissodactyla.

Abstract:
Four groups of equids, "Anchitheriinae," Merychippine-grade Equinae, Hipparionini, and Equini, coexisted in the middle Miocene, and only the Equini remains after 16 million years of evolution and extinction. Each group is distinct in its occlusal enamel pattern. These patterns have been compared qualitatively but rarely quantitatively. The processes controlling the evolution of these occlusal patterns have not been thoroughly investigated with respect to phylogeny, tooth position, and climate through geologic time. I investigated two methods of quantitative analysis, Occlusal Enamel Index for shape and fractal dimensionality for complexity. I used analyses of variance and an analysis of co-variance to test hypotheses of process. Results suggest that enamel shape was controlled by phylogeny, tooth position, and climate. The lower taxonomic levels are shown to have a strong effect on complexity, suggesting behavior is driving complexity rather than overarching phylogenetic constraint.

Abstract:
Les périssodactyles (comprenant aujourd’hui les chevaux, les rhinocéros et les tapirs) apparaissent au début de l’Éocène et se dispersent rapidement dans tout l’hémisphère Nord. Leur origine géographique, probablement asiatique, ainsi que leur origine phylogénétique est actuellement débattue. Ce travail présente une étude et une révision des périssodactyles hippomorphes de l’Éocène inférieur (MP7-MP10) d’Europe, ainsi qu’une nouvelle phylogénie pour tenter de répondre à ces questions. La majorité du matériel est inédite et provient du bassin de Paris, ainsi que du sud de la France. Douze espèces d’hippomorphes, dont deux nouvelles, et une nouvelle espèce d’isectolophidé ont été identifiés dans l’Éocène inférieur d’Europe. Les faunes rapprochés du MP7 présentent des différences entre le nord et le sud de l’Europe, confirmant l’hypothèse d’une barrière climatique. Un renouvellement des périssodactyles au niveau générique s’effectue entre les sites rapprochés du MP7 et ceux rapprochés du MP8-9, ainsi qu’une homogénéisation des espèces entre le nord et le sud de l’Europe. Les sites MP8-9 et ceux proches du MP10 possèdent des faunes de périssodactyles similaires. L’étude phylogénétique indique que les hippomorphes européens sont paraphylétiques, et que les équidés nord-américains s’enracinent dans ce groupe, ainsi que les paléothères européens. Plusieurs évènements de dispersions ont eu lieu très tôt à l’Éocène depuis l’Asie. Deux épisodes de dispersions vers l’Europe ont eu lieu pour les tapiromorphes, un premier (MP7) amenant les isectolophidés qui s’éteindront rapidement en Europe, et un second (MP8-9) apportant des tapiromorphes plus dérivés<br>Perissodactyls (nowadays including horses, rhinos and tapirs) appear at the beginning of the Eocene, and quickly spread into the whole Northern Hemisphere. The center of origin is still debated but the Asian hypothesis is favored, and their phylogenetic affinities are also matter of debate, mostly since the discovery of cambaytheres in India and the genetic affinities with the South American Native Ungulates. This work provides a review of hippomorph perissodactyles of the early Eocene (MP7- MP10) of Europe, and presents a new phylogeny to answer the question of their origin. Most of the material is unpublished and comes from the Paris Basin, as well as Southern France. Twelve hippomorph species, including two new species, and a new species of isectolophid have been identified for the early Eocene of Europe. Faunas close to the MP7 reference-level show differences between Northern and Southern Europe, confirming the hypothesis of a climatic barrier. A turnover of perissodactyls at the generic level takes place between the sites close to MP7 and those close to MP8- 9, and a homogenization of species between Northern and Southern Europe occurs. The sites close to MP8-9 and MP10 have similar perissodactyl faunas. The phylogenetic study indicates that European hippomorphs are paraphyletic, and that North American equids are rooted in this group, as well as European paleotheres. Several dispersal events occurred from Asia very early in the Eocene. Two episodes of dispersions towards Europe took place for the tapiromorphs, a first (MP7) bringing the isectolophids which will go extinct quickly in Europe, and a second one (MP8-9) bringing more derived tapiromorphs
