Some authors, Lucas, Mothé, Avilla et al., propose a reclassification of the South American gomphotheres as follows:[275][276][277][278]

• Stegomastodon (Pohlig 1912) is an exclusively North American genus
• Haplomastodon (Hoffstetter 1950) is a South American genus, but synonymous with Notiomastodon (Cabrera 1929)
• as Notiomastodon was defined earlier, all Haplomastodon species should be considered part of Notiomastodon
• all formerly described species as Stegomastodon sp., Haplomastodon sp. and Notiomastodon sp. belong to a single species; Notiomastodon platensis
• Cuvieronius (Osborn 1923) is the only remaining South American genus outside of Notiomastodon

• List of fossiliferous stratigraphic units in Venezuela
• List of mining areas in Colombia
• South American land mammal age
• Gomphothere fossils in Colombia
• Geology of Colombia
  • Geology of the Ocetá Páramo
  • Geology of the Altiplano Cundiboyacense
  • Geology of the Eastern Hills of Bogotá
