---|---|---|
J. D. Archibald and A. Averianov 2012 | The monophyly of Zhelestinae is supported by the following unambiguous synapomorphies: M1 parastylar lobe anterior to paracone; M2 metastylar lobe more labial than parastylar lobe; mandibular symphysis extends to p3 or more posteriorly (reversed in Parazhelestes); Meckelian groove absent (unknown for Aspanlestes); p5 metaconid separate (unknown for Eoungulatum); p5 lingual cingulid is absent. |
