Reassessment of the phylogenetic interrelationships of basal turtles (Testudinata) (2012, background): “quenstedti is the sister group to all other turtles’ (e.g. Gaffney 1990; Joyce 2007).”
A Review of the Fossil Record of Basal Mesozoic Turtles (2017, background): “…the turtle stem lineage is populated by a diverse assortment of fossil taxa with a global distribution (e.g., Rougier et al. 1995; Sukhanov 2006; Joyce 2007; Sterli 2008; Anquetin 2012; Sterli, Pol, and Laurin 2013; Rabi, Zhou, et al. 2013; Rabi et al. 2014; Zhou and Rabi 2015; Joyce et al.…”
A nomenclature for fossil and living turtles using phylogenetically defined clade names (2020, neutral): “In contrast to Cadena and Parham (2015) and Anquetin et al. (2017), we here restrict the name Protostegidae to the more immediate clade associated with Protostega gigas , but expand the meaning of the name Thalassochelydia to potentially include Sandownidae and Protostegidae .”
A new phylogenetic hypothesis of turtles with implications for the timing and number of evolutionary transitions to marine lifestyles in the group (2018, methodology): “…ıa 2015) and Solnhofia, which have been variously grouped with non-thalassochelydian taxa such as the early protostegid Santanachelys (Danilov & Parham 2006; Joyce 2007; P erez-Garc ıa et al. 2012; Sterli & de la Fuente 2013; Sterli et al. 2013) but also sandownids (e.g. Mateus et al. 2009).”
Turtles and Tortoises of the World During the Rise and Global Spread of Humanity: First Checklist and Review of Extinct Pleistocene and Holocene Chelonians. (2015, background): “Several authors place it on the stem of crown turtles, branching off before the Cryptodira–Pleurodira split (e.g., Joyce 2007; Sterli 2010; Sterli and de la Fuente 2013), but others (e.g., Gaffney 1983, 1985, 1996; Gaffney et al. 2007; Gaffney and Jenkins 2010) place it among the Cryptodira.”
New Sea Turtle from the Miocene of Peru and the Iterative Evolution of Feeding Ecomorphologies since the Cretaceous (2010, methodology): “Further resolution of this issue will require a re-analysis of Joyce (2007) to include additional characters and pan-chelonioid OTUs (e.g., a lophochelyine).”
A Divergence Dating Analysis of Turtles Using Fossil Calibrations: An Example of Best Practices (2013, methodology): “The phylogenetic placement of the oldest (Campanian, .70 Ma) fossils traditionally placed on the cheloniid stem, Toxochelys and Ctenochelys, remains controversial as many authors assign one or both of these taxa to stem Chelonioidea (i.e., outside the crown; Kear and Lee, 2006; Joyce, 2007).”
