A Revision of the Didelphid Marsupial Genus Marmosa Part 1. The Species in Tate's ‘Mexicana’ and ‘Mitis’ Sections and Other Closely Related Forms (2010, methodology): “Phylogenetic relationships of Marmosa (sensu Gardner and Creighton, 1989) and Micoureus (treated as a subgenus of Marmosa in this report) based on a maximum-parsimony analysis of 7449 characters (including morphology, karyotypes, and sequence data from five nuclear genes; Voss and Jansa, 2009) score”
A Brief History of South American Metatherians: Evolutionary Contexts and Intercontinental Dispersals (2016, background): “…is present only in some of the larger (i.e., Didelphini ) and medium-sized species (i.e., Caluromyinae), but is not developed in the remaining taxa (e.g., Glironiinae, Hyladelphinae, Marmosini, Metachirini, Thylamyini), which includes all small and a few medium-sized species (Voss and Jansa 2009).”
