The result of this discussion was merge. —Trilletrollet [ Talk | Contribs ] 18:33, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I'm proposing to merge Brasilitherium and Minicynodon into this page, since recent studies (like Guignard et al. (2019) and Cabreira et al. (2022)) interpret them as synonyms of Brasilodon. All three genera belong to the same formation and have a very similar anatomy, and they have been suspected of being synonymous since 2010 at least (see Liu & Yates (2010) for example). —Trilletrollet [ Talk | Contribs ] 18:33, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

And given that Brasilodon appears to be the only valid brasilodontid, should the family also be merged into this article? Magnatyrannus (talk | contribs) 19:42, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Magnatyrannus: Yes, probably. Most of the things that can be said about Brasilodontidae could be included in the classification section of the Brasilodon article. —Trilletrollet [ Talk | Contribs ] 20:39, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support I agree with Trilletrollet's analysis, also suppporting redirecting Brasilodontidae. Hemiauchenia (talk) 22:49, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
