[edit] Characteristics

The Infraorder Lemuriformes has 4 families, 14 genera and 62 species.

[edit] Comments

All Malagasy lemur families, with the possible exception of Daubentoniidae, form a monophyletic clade (reviewed in Groves, 2001c). As the families within this clade themselves fall into two groups, it is convenient to recognize infraorders as well as superfamilies.
