Abstract
A comprehensive comparative anatomical investigation of the carotid circulation in several mammalian orders, viz., insectivores, primates, rodents, lagomorphs, edentates, pangolins and carnivores (cf. Bugge, 1974b, 1975a, 1978), has shown the cephalic arterial pattern to be an important supplement to other morphological systems, especially tooth morphology and osteology, as a basis for a systematic classification of mammals, reflecting their probable evolutionary history and phylogenetic relationships.
This research was supported by a grant from the Danish State Research Foundation.
