even a full skeleton would not place them in a phylogenetic tree. Ancestry is determined by genetics, not appearance. Otherwise people would correctly assume hyenas were Canids and Koalas actually were bears. They won't get some magically more detailed dna from finding the skull.

it doesn't take much understanding of a gene sequence to place it.
