 | | Molecular biology and Lemuriformes (Malagasy Primates) phylogeny In this study most of the species included in the Lemuridae (Eulemur, Hapalemur, Varecia), Indriidae (Indri, Propithecus, Avahi), Lepilemuridae, Cheirogaleidae (Cheirogaleus, Microcebus, Mirza) and Daubentonia are used, as well as a sub-fossile (Megaladapis edwardsi) and two Tupaia species. |
 | | The most 'credible' phylogenetic reconstruction is then: ((Cheirogaleidae, (Indriidae, (Lepilemuridae, Megaladapis)), ((Eulemur, Hapalemur), Varecia)), (Daubentonia, Tupaia)) The association between Daubentonia and Tupaia may indicate the existence of two distinct Lemuriformes colonisations, one conducting to the Daubentonia and the other to all other Malagasy Strepsirhini. |
 | | The Megaladapis edwardsi sub-fossile appear to be grouped with le Lepilemuridae and together formed a clade how is the sister clade of the one including Indriidae. |
