  Thesis abstract
On the other hand the association, in a same cluster, of the Daubentoniidae and Tupaia is an important data, even though the place of the Tupaia was the subject of multiple controversies: for some authors this group is very detached of the Strepsirhini, to see even completely outside of the group of the Primates.
The use of the method of the ‘linearized trees’ permit, while considering that the separation between Lorisidae and Strepsirhini intervened 62 millions of years ago (that is to say long after that Madagascar separated of the African continent, there are about 150 millions years) the evaluation of the main dates of divergence.
So the oldest separation (neighbor of 60 millions of years) is found for the Daubentoniidae and Tupaia divergence, whereas most recent (neighbor of 11 millions of years) is the one implying the Megaladapis and the Lepilemuridae.

 Education: Primates   (Site not responding. Last check: )
A basic scheme that has been widely followed is Simpson's (1945) division of the Primates into two suborders: Prosimii, for the families Tupaiidae, Lemuridae, Indriidae, Daubentoniidae, Lorisidae, and Tarsiidae; and Anthropoidea, for the families Cebidae, Callitrichidae, Cercopithecidae, Pongidae, and Hominidae.
The living Strepsirhini are sometimes divided into two infraorders: the Lemuriformes, for the Lemuridae, Indriidae, and Daubentoniidae; and the Lorisiformes, for the Lorisidae.
Studies of the postcranial skeleton of Daubentonia (the sole genus of Daubentoniidae) indicated to Oxnard (1981) that this genus is more different from any primate than is any primate from any other and that its referral to the Lemuriformes is questionable.
