Both groups are currently the sub- jects of primarily typological classifica- tions and subjective evolutionary system- atic approaches. Understanding of their relationships would be greatly enhanced by phylogenetic analyses. A HISTO

Colombia, either in Venezuela or Colombia, USNM There is usually a single, conical, outer row premaxillary tooth but occasionally a second tooth also is present. Again, our limited sample prevents a definitive state- ment about tooth numbers, but the num- ber of outer row teeth apparently is not correlated with body size longer tha
