Microbiotheria 
 Australia’s earliest known marsupial is Djarthia, a primitive mouse-like animal that lived about 55 million years ago.
Microbiotheria 
 Djarthia had been identified as the earliest known australidelphian, and this research suggested that the Monito del Monte was the last of a clade which included Djarthia.
Microbiotheria 
 In 2010, analysis of retrotransposon insertion sites in the nuclear DNA of marsupials confirmed the placement of the Monito del Monte in Australidelphia.
Microbiotheria 
 The study also confirmed that the most basal of all marsupial orders are the other two South American lineages (Didelphimorphia and Paucituberculata, with the former probably branching first).
Microbiotheria 
 This indicates that Australidelphia arose in South America (with the ancestors of all other living marsupials), and probably reached Australia in a single dispersal event after Microbiotheria split off (originated).
