FIGURE 3. Placental phylogeny (Stammbaum der Placentalier, Arldt 1907, figure 1). Note the biogeographic regions and time (period and epochs) mapped onto a phylogenetic tree. Arldt's Stammbaum is similar to a modern day taxon-area cladogram (with a temporal aspect), an idea that was independently introduced 59 years later by Lars Brundin (Brundin 1966)
