Galadi speciousus (Travouillon et al 2010, Travouillion et al 2013, Oligocene-Miocene) was originally considered a predatory bandicoot, but here it nests at the base of the Eomaia + Caluromys clade. Molar morphology indicates omnivory.

Phascogale tapoatafa (type Didelphis pincillata Shaw 1800, originally Vivera tapoatafa Meyer 1793, Fig 1) are traditional dasyurid Australian marsupials. Their common names are wambengers and mousesacks.

Phascogale lacks a pouch, as in the traditional genus Monodelphis, represented in the LRT by three species. None of these four taxa are related to one another in the LRT = they don't nest together and apart from other marsupials in a pouch-less clade. Pouches disappeared by convergence. Even so, marsupial bones are present.

Nocturnal and arboreal Phascogale (16–27 cm svl) nests at the base of the marsupial clade that produced Early Cretaceous Eomaia and Early Jurassic multituberculates, along with extant rodents, kangaroos and marsupial moles. Flat-skulled Late Cretaceous Asiatherium is a proximal ancestor close to the Late Triassic origin of the marsupial clade. So this is a very long-lived arboreal taxon, going back 200 million years, despite its self-limited ability to reproduce. Males die soon after mating during their first year of life. Females generally produce only one litter of six pups during three years of life.
