Classification of the extinct South American native ungulates (SANUs) has posed a challenge given the absence of close, surviving relatives. Here, Westburyet al. sequence the mitochondrial genome of the extinct SANU Macrauchenia patachonicaand recons

The ability to obtain ancient DNA (aDNA) from extinct species has greatly improved our ability to study their evolutionary histories. Most aDNA studies focus on mitochondrial DNA for both population-level and species-level insights, due to its relati
