• Constraints on the timescale of animal evolutionary history (2015, background): “Taxa such as Heomys and Mimotona are Glires, but do not belong within crown Rodentia or Lagomorpha (Meng et al., 2003; Asher et al., 2005).”
• The Eutherian Mammal Maelestes gobiensis from the Late Cretaceous of Mongolia and the phylogeny of cretaceous eutheria (2009, background): “Lower diastema behind incisors (Meng et al., 2003a: 84): absent or small (0) or enlarged (1).”
• Paleontological evidence to date the tree of life. (2006, background): “This phylogenetic position has been challenged (Meng et al. 2003; Asher et al. 2005), and these authors place zalambdalestids outside the clade Placentalia, and certainly below Afrotheria in the cladogram of mammals.”
• The Lagomorph Fossil Record and the Origin of the European Rabbit (2008, background): “Mimotonids cluster either with Lagomorpha (clade Duplicidentata) or with other mixodonts; eurymylids group either with Rodentia (clade Rodentiamorpha) or with Duplicidentata (Averianov 1994; Meng et al. 2003; Asher et al. 2005).”
• Relationships of Endemic African Mammals and Their Fossil Relatives Based on Morphological and Molecular Evidence (2003, background): “2 and as long recognized by many morphologists (e.g., Luckett, 1985; Meng et al., 2003).”
