Again, this may be the result of our use of the Fossilized Birth Death model in our dated analysis, as this will tend to reconstruct fossil terminals as originating deeper in the tree (see Dated Total-Evidence Analysis in the Discussion section for more detail). However, as already discussed, we prefer the results of our dated analysis regarding relationships within Macropodiformes (based on their greater congruence with other recent studies of macropodiform systematics), so we tentatively recognize?
