. The Australian zoologist. Zoology; Zoology; Zoology. ? FIG. 11.—Dendrogram depicting one possible set of relationships of late Cenozoic tachy- glossid genera and species. Tachyglossus is less specialised than any Zaglossus species uggeting early dichotomous branching of the two genera. The stem form for both genera therefore may have resembled Tachyglossus more than Zaglossus. The relationships within Zaglossus are close, probably more linear than branching. Z. robusta may have been ancestral to Z. ramsayi which gave rise to Z. bruijni in the upper Pleistocen

"Zaglossus" hacketti is Incertae sedis, shown here as an errant line from the base of the Zaglossus lineage. Time of branching is entirely speculative. 50.
