Abstrakt: The remarkable glyptodonts have sparked the interest of evolutionary biologists since the 19th century, in their attempts to elucidate the phylogenetic relationships among the various species of these armored giants and their relationship with other xenarthrans. In recent years, the molecular analysis of the first glyptodont has included them within the cingulates, as a special group of armadillos that lost the mobility of the bands of their armor during their evolutionary history. In this research, we obtained the mitochondrial DNA sequence of the elusive and poorly known glyptodont Neuryurus rudis, inferring its phylogenetic position with respect to the glyptodont Doedicurus sp. and extant armadillos. This study reaffirms glyptodonts as a subgroup of cingulates, with Neuryurus and Doedicurus sharing a common ancestor from the late Oligocene or early Miocene and traces the group's origin back to an armadillo ancestor in the Eocene.
