Jurassic period,
about 160 million years ago, and survived until the Oligocene epoch,
about 35 million years ago. They lived in
Asia, Europe,
and North America, as well as, possibly, South America.
About 80 genera of Multituberculates , and they range in size from
about the size of a mouse to the size of a beaver. The principal
distinguishing feature is their teeth - they had no canines, a single
pair of lower incisors, and molar teeth with many cusps ("tubercles") which
were arranged in rows.

The problem of the origin, differentiation, and relationships of living mammals has long been of great interest. Although some individuals have attempted to address the entire question, no one has been able to provide a complete synthesis. In recognition of this need, a based consortium was organized to provide a multifaceted, multidisciplinary attack on the problems of mammal phylogeny. Mammal Phylogeny brings together sixty distinguished researchers representing the fields of vertebrate paleontology, anthropology, mammal morphology, embryology, and molecular biology, resulting in 35 state-of-the-art papers addressing the current questions of this important field. |
