Sirenian molecular systematics - including the extinct Steller's sea cow (Hydrodamalis gigas).
Naturwissenschaften 71(11): 586-588. 1 tab. 1 fig.
–Analysis of bone extracts and serum albumins supports the phyletic branching pattern of the five Recent sir. species derived from the fossil record, but argues for more recent branching points than the fossils suggest.

1985
Molecular approaches to the identification of species.
Amer. Scientist 73(6): 541-547. 6 figs. Nov.-Dec. 1985.
–Presents a phylogeny of sirs., proboscideans, and hyraxes based on immunological distances. It shows the sir.-proboscidean divergence at about 55 Ma, but the dugongid-trichechid divergence at only 17-20 Ma and the Hydrodamalis-Dugong divergence at only 4-8 Ma. It also shows T. senegalensis as the sister group of T. manatus + T. inunguis.
