Paleogenomics illuminates the evolutionary history of the extinct Holocene “horned” crocodile of Madagascar, Voay robustus

Hekkala et al. use mitochondrial genomic data of the extinct “horned” crocodile, Voay robustus, from Holocene deposits in Madagascar to examine its evolutionary history. Phylogenetic analyses indicate a sister group relationship between Voay and true crocodiles (Crocodylus), and add support to an Af...
