Article is new enough and long enough and well enough referenced, with no copyvios (at least to the online sources, I did not have access to check source 3). The hook checks out, the word "may" being key. The wording of the 2nd half of the hook does seem a bit awkward to me. Although I don't think it is essential, it might be worth considering rewording along the lines of ALT1 ... that the extinct, Triassic, bivalve family Cassianellidae may have evolved from the family Bakevelliidae, which survived longer into the Eocene?
