Abstract

Within the notoungulate family Hegetotheriidae, some species have not been analyzed since their original publication more than a century ago. Here we present the first re-evaluation of Tegehotherium burmeisteri, including a detailed description of its holotype in an updated comparative framework, a species presumably coming from the Trelew Member of the Sarmiento Formation (Chubut Province, Argentina). Tegehotherium burmeisteri is included for the first time in a phylogenetic analysis centered in the interrelationships of hegetotheriids and defining clades according to the PhyloCode. Tegehotherium burmeisteri is recovered as a hegetotheriine closely related to Sallatherium and Hegetotherium; Hegetotheriopsis sulcatus is the earliest branch of the clade Hegetotheriidae, whereas Prohegetotherium and Paedotherium turn out to be paraphyletic, reinforcing results obtained in recent studies. The family Hegetotheriidae and both subfamilies, Hegetotheriinae and Pachyrukhinae, are recovered as monophyletic groups and defined phylogenetically, as well as two new clades: Pachyrukhini and Hemihegetotheriomorpha.
