The morphology is very close between Hipposideridae and Rhinolophidae, and in particular for fossil, This makes it very difficult routine duties. A cladistic analysis based on limited to the teeth characters clarified the dichotomy between fossils belonging to both families and to clarify the position of the taxon Shanghuang in phylogeny Rhinolophoidea. The European genre Vaylatsia finds himself very close to the present Rhinolophus and Protorhinolophus is positioned at the base of Rhinolophidae. Considering the phylogenetic position of the Chinese protorhinolophe and age, it was possible to propose a paleobiogeographic scenario on the origin and dispersal of Rhinolophidae. These find their origin in Asia and were dispersed to Europe during the Middle Eocene. However, This assumption is based on a too fragmentary fossil record to be confirmed.
morphology ni karibu sana kati ya Hipposideridae na Rhinolophidae, na hasa kwa mafuta ya, Hii inafanya kuwa vigumu sana majukumu ya kawaida. uchambuzi cladistic misingi ya mdogo kwa wahusika meno alifafanua dichotomy kati ya fossils wa mali ya familia zote mbili na kufafanua nafasi ya taxon Shanghuang katika phylogeny Rhinolophoidea. Ghana Ulaya Vaylatsia anajikuta karibu sana na sasa Rhinolophus na Protorhinolophus ni nafasi nzuri katika wigo wa Rhinolophidae. Kuzingatia nafasi phylogenetic ya protorhinolophe Kichina na umri, ilikuwa inawezekana kupendekeza mazingira paleobiogeographic juu ya asili na usambazaji wa Rhinolophidae. Hawa kupata asili yao katika Asia na wakatawanyika kwa Ulaya wakati wa Mashariki ya Eocene. Hata hivyo, Dhana hii ni misingi ya pia fragmentary fossila rekodi kwa kuwa imara.
