"Traditionally (since Huxley, 1869) the category or rank of ""Order"" has been used for Hyracoidea. In 1997, McKenna and Bell, following cladistic classification, proposed a new category – ""Suborder"" for Hyracoidea, in the ""Order"" Uranotheria McKenna and Bell (1997). For stability I retain the ordinal category, recognizing the cladistic message implied by the McKenna and Bell arrangement."
