520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc The Evolution of Artiodactyls synthesizes this research into a single, comprehensive volume. Here Donald R. Prothero, Scott E. Foss, and a team of distinguished international experts explore evolutionary topics and trends among all living artiodactyl families as well as many that are extinct. They also discuss the molecular phylogeny of terrestrial artiodactyls; phylogenetic relationships of cetaceans to terrestrial artiodactyls, and the earliest artiodactyls -- Diacodexidae, Dichobunidae, Homacodontidae, Leptochoeridae, and Raoellidae. A landmark reference, The Evolution of Artiodactyls belongs on the library shelf of every paleontologist, mammalogist, and evolutionary biologist.
