| | ADW: Dasyuridae: Information |
 | | The palatal vacuities that characterize most marsupials are reduced or absent in some species. |
| | Taxonomists divide the family into four subfamilies, the Dasyurinae (quolls, Tasmanian devil, kowari, mulgara, kaluta, dibblers, pseudantechinuses, and parantechinuses), Phascogalinae (phascogales and other antechinuses), Sminthopsinae (dunnarts and kultarr), and Planigalinae (planigales and ningauis). |
| | Evidence for the cohesiveness of the entire group, however, is strong. |
