Resumen:
The objective of this paper is to reply the recent comments on our papers made byCozzuol et al. (2011) about the phylogeny and biogeography of South American Gomphotheres. We addressed the method-ological criticism and concluded thatSinomastodonis the sister group of the South American gompho-theres, as we originally proposed, despite the weighting scheme adopted to analyze the data. Therefore, we argue that our conclusions based on this phylogenetic hypothesis on the evolution and biogeography of this group is not properly refuted by Cozzoul et al. (2011).
