	PERISSODACTYLA - LoveToKnow Article on PERISSODACTYLA
		The Perissodactyla have been brigaded with the Artiodactyla (q.v.) to form the typical group of the ungulates, under the name of Diplarthra, or Ungulata Vera, and the features distinguishing the combined group from the less specialized members of the order Ungulata will be found under the heading of that order.
		The Perissodactyla may be divided into the four followinf sections, namely the extinct Titanotheroidea, the Hippoidea represented by the horse tribe and their ancestors, the Tapiroidea typified by the tapirs, and the Rhinocerotoidea, which includes the modern rhinoceroses and their forerunners.
		Rhinoceros Group.The last section of the Perissodactyla is that of the Rhinocerotoidea, represented by the modern rhinoceroses and their extinct allies.

	Perissodactyla
		Biologists now know that there are two quite distinct groups, taxonomically separated on the basis of their toes, though we still often speak of "ungulates" for the sake of convenience.
		The Perissodactyla, or odd-toed ungulates, are those that bear their weight by the longer middle (or third) digit on each foot.
		Tapirs are the most primitive of the order and in many ways probably resemble the earliest ancestors of the Perissodactyla back in Eocene times, 50,000,000 years ago.

	Sedes Draconis: Perissodactyla (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		They occupy many niches on the Hajasith similar to those of Earthly pigs, peccaries, and hippos.
		The Perissodactyla are the older of the two great groups of large, placental mammalian herbivores.
		The Perissodactyla are an older group and evolved before the continent bearing the placental mammals split into its northern and southern pieces (respectively the Hajasith, and the eastern Kellsith, now) and a few Perissodactylan species still survive in the South, but most of their diversity is on the Hajasith.

	Introduction to the Perissodactyla
		Photo by Gerald and Buff Corsi, © 1999 California Academy of Sciences.
		"Odd-toed" or "odd-hoofed" mammals make up the Perissodactyla.
		Like the "even-toed" Artiodactyla, perissodactyls are unguligrades; that is, they walk on the terminal bones of the toes and have enlarged toenails forming hoofs.
