Divergence time estimates of mammals from molecular clocks and fossils: relevance of new fossil finds from India.

G V R Prasad1.   

Abstract

This paper presents a brief review of recent advances in the classification of mammals at higher levels using fossils and molecular clocks. It also discusses latest fossil discoveries from the Cretaceous - Eocene (66-55 m.y.) rocks of India and their relevance to our current understanding of placental mammal origins and diversifications.
