Diagnosis
| Reference | Diagnosis | |
|---|---|---|
| P. C. J. Donoghue et al. 2008 | The possession of an ‘inner lateral’ process on P2 elements (character 24) is a unique synapomorphy that unites all Prioniodinina. The absence of a posterior process (character 23) is almost as reliable as a prioniodinin synapomorphy, but is secondarily gained in Kladognathus and is homoplastically lost in Histiodella and Periodon. All other synapomorphies of this clade, or slightly less inclusive subclades, are also P element characters. The clade encompassing all Prioniodinina except Aphelognathus, for example, is united by the possession of digyrate P2 elements with an angle of less than ca. 135◦ between proximal parts of processes (character 93), a unique synapomorphy, and in possessing peglike denticles on P2 elements (character 21; secondarily lost in Erraticodon, Oulodus, Erismodus and Chirognathus). Members of the clade comprising all prioniodinins more derived than Prioniodina share a number of synapomorphies (characters 1, 4, 5, 6, 7, 25, 28, 92) that pertain to possession of digyrate P1 and P2 elements (characters 7, 28, 92; unique to this clade; very few reversals) and their process disposition (characters 1, 4, 5, 6, 25). |
