| M. Murakami 2016 | Inioidea with the following synapomorphies in the current cladistic analysis: U-shaped external bony nares; premaxillary eminence. Differing from all inioids by having a pronounced laterally overhanging premaxillary eminence; the anteroposteriorly long cleft not widely separating the posteromedial splint and the posterolateral plates; ascending process of maxilla standing perpendicular towards supraorbital process of maxilla; prominent, dorsoventrally thick nasal; strongly narrowing maxilla, posterior to the level of the postorbital process; transversely narrow temporal fossa; and very short zygomatic process of the squamosal. |
