They are distinguished by the possession of double incisor teeth, and were formerly placed with the rodents. Example sentencesExamples - The phylogenetic results significantly support rodent monophyly, the association of Rodentia with Lagomorpha (the Glires clade), and a Glires + Euarchonta (Primates, Dermoptera, and Scandentia) clade.
- Rabbits, hares, and a few other species make up the Lagomorpha.
- Euarchontoglires is composed of the orders Primates, Rodentia, Lagomorpha (rabbits, hares, and pikas), Scandentia (tree shrews), and Dermoptera (flying lemurs).
- The newly established complete mtDNA data support the close relationship between Lagomorpha and Scandentia, which was tentatively proposed by Graur, Duret, and Gouy.
- In addition, PAG-like genes have been found in the genomes of mammals belonging to a number of different orders (Carnivora, Lagomorpha, Perissodactyla, and Rodentia), but not in the human genome.
Origin Modern Latin (plural), from Greek lagōs 'hare' + morphē 'form'.
