Comparative analysis of the morphology, molecular and parasite diversity has resulted in the redescription of A. ocellatus from tropical and warm-temperate waters of the Indian Ocean and West-Central Pacific Ocean with A. narinari being restricted to the Atlantic Ocean (Richards et al. 2009, White et al. 2010). Molecular analyses suggest greater levels of speciation within the Aetobatus genus, with distinguishable groups in the Western Indian Ocean and Northwest Pacific (Schluessel et al. 2010, White et al. 2010).

(2013) demonstrated that the existing taxonomy of the Pristidae required modification, recognising a total of five species in two genera. Pristis pristis had been recognised previously as consisting of up to three species (Pristis pristis, P. microdon and P. perotteti), but utilising a combination of mitochondrial DNA and morphological characters appears to be one species. While the P. pristis group is best considered a single species, it can be composed of a network of geographical units (subpopulations) that are not genetically distinct, but may be considered ecologically different.The classification of Rusas in their own genus as Rusa rather than Cervus was suggested by Van Bemmel (1949, cited by Emmerson and Tate 1993) based on the geographic distribution of these animals. While simple geographical or morphological characteristics may not be enough to justify a classification, cervine and rusine deer have different chromosome numbers (cervine: 2n = 66 to 68, rusine: 2n = 56 to 65; Neitzel 1987 and Wang et al. 1982, cited by Emmerson and Tate 1993; Gilbert et al. 2006; data in Groves and Grubb 2011) and these species do not interbreed. More recently, the division of the genus Cervus into four subgenera including Rusa, and the classification of Rusas in that subgenus was suggested by Groves and Grubb (1987) and has since been supported by extensive genetic studies (Meijard and Groves 2004).
Wilson and Mittermeier (2011) have listed seven timorensis subspecies: R. t. timorensis (Timor), R. t. djonga (Muna and Buton), R. t. floresiensis (Flores), R. t. macassaricus (Sulawesi), R. t. moluccensis (Moluccan Islands), R. t. renschi (Bali), and R. t. russa (Java). Others disagree that R. timorensis can be separated into subspecies and suggest that the apparent differences between the groups listed above are simply due to the genetic effects of small populations, and to environmental effects which have caused the development of phenotypically (but not genetically) different populations.
However, it has been accepted by several authors (e.g. Hill, Thomas and Mackenzie 1987; Dahlan 2009) that Javan (designated R. timorensis russa) and Moluccan (R. t. moluccensis) deer are different subspecies. This distinction has been based in some instances on the origin of the population under consideration, and on differences in size and pelage (Mackenzie 1985, Groves and Grubb 2011), and are therefore inconclusive. However, there are distinct differences in breeding season when the two “breeds” are managed in the same environment (Woodford 1994). That the Moluccan deer may be in the process of evolving away from the Javan “parent “ population is strongly indicated by the work of Emmerson and Tate (1993) who concluded, on the basis of phenetic and cladistic analyses, that Rusas from Java and Molucca should be divided into different subspecies, with a genetic distance (Nei 1972) of about 0.08. The validity of separating the other six subspecies suggested by Grubb (2005) has apparently not been established.
