Exafroplacentalia or Notolegia is a clade of placental mammals proposed in 2001 on the basis of molecular research.[1][2][3]
Exafroplacentalia places Xenarthra as a sister group to the Boreoeutheria (comprising Laurasiatheria and Euarchontoglires),[4] thus making Afrotheria a primitive group of placental mammals (the group name roughly means "those which are not African placentals").
