Currently, the introduction states that the Amphicyonidae belong to the Arctoidea. According to the family tree, they don't. What's the current state of knowledge? --KnightMove (talk) 17:30, 8 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I could be wrong here, but it looks to me that the introduction states that the now extinct Hemicyonidae belong to Arctoidea, but Amphicyonidae don't. So... dog-bears do but bear-dogs don't... obviously... Worm^TT

I'm very sorry, I must have had blinders on. --KnightMove (talk) 14:55, 24 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Don't worry about it. Like I say, I was surprised that dog-bears aren't the same as bear-dogs. But then I guess

The article asserts that "Mustelida" is the musteloid/pinniped clade. No usage of that term is to be found in the source given, and I can find no other. Anyone have such a source, or is this an error? 109.255.211.6 (talk) 19:45, 8 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
