Two more odd ‘hornless rhinos’ nest slightly elsewhere in the LRT

First a little backstory
Earlier, Paracerathierium and Juxia, two traditional hornless rhinos, nested with three-toed horses in the large reptile tree (LRT, 1009 taxa, Fig. 3).

Today
the giant hippo-like traditional rhino, Metamynodon planifroms (Scott and Osborn 1867; Early Eocene; 4m long), nests with Eotitanops, the basal brontothere, though not far from Ceratotherium, the white rhino.

And
the smaller long-necked traditional rhino, Amynodon, nests with Mesohippus, the basal horse. Both were derived from a sister to Hyracotherium, basal to both rhinos and horses.

Amynodon advenus (Marsh 1877; 1m in length; Oligocene-Eocene, 40-23 mya) was originally considered an aquatic rhino. Here it nests with Mesohippus. The long neck and other traits are more horse-like than rhino-like. Manual digit 5 was retained. The skull was deeper as in basal forms like Hyracotherium.

Traditional cladograms
nest horses separate from tapirs + rhinos. The LRT nests horses with rhinos both derived from a sister to Hyracotherium and a sister to tapirs + chalicotheres. Traditional cladograms also avoid mixing brontotheres, horses and rhinos, like we do here.
