Evolution of Old World Equus and origin of the zebra-ass clade.

Scientific reports - 12 May 2021

Cirilli Omar, Pandolfi Luca, Rook Lorenzo, Bernor Raymond L

Abstract excerpt

Evolution of the genus Equus has been a matter of long debate with a multitude of hypotheses. Currently, there is no consensus on either the taxonomic content nor phylogeny of Equus. Some hypotheses segregate Equus species into three genera, Plesippus, Allohippus and Equus. Also, the evolutionary role of European Pleistocene Equus stenonis in the origin of the zebra-ass clade has been debated. Studies based on...
