    Charles Darwin observed through his voyage on the HMS Beagle and from reading Lyell's work that 1) species change over time, 2) some species survive while others go extinct, and 3) related species share similar traits. The phylogenetic tree shows that Stegodon and Mammuthus are now extinct. Loxodonta and Elephas are sister taxa and considered closely related to Mammuthus. Proboscidea is the basal taxon of the group. The largest leaves near the rainforest floor likely face limitations in carbon dioxide as the precursor for photosynthesis, since carbon dioxide levels would be lower deeper in the dense forest with less air circulation.
