—German summ. Best died before seeing the completed manuscript of this paper. Reports that T. inunguis hemoglobin has only one component, describes the primary structures of its a- and ß-chains, and concludes that several hemoglobin synapomorphies support the monophyletic grouping of the Sirenia, Proboscidea, and Hyracoidea and show the Paenungulata to be the most anciently separated branch of the Eutheria.
