Taxonomists have wanted to separate elapsoidies from triangulum for some time. The only reason they haven't done so already is apparent integration with temporalis, which is definitely triangulum. Armed with "evidence" they are now planning to call this integration something along the lines of "ancestral hybridization" and separate elapsoides from the rest of triangulum anyway. Not sure how I feel about all that. I see good points on both sides but tend to think that Connant got it right regardless.
