The step in cladistic analysis that has received least attention is delimitation of character
states, there usually being little justification for their delimitation. It is generally assumed that …

The long-awaited revision of the industry standard on phylogenetics Since the publication of
the first edition of this landmark volume more than twenty-five years ago, phylogenetic …

Cladistics aims to reconstruct genealogies based on common ancestry, thus revealing the
phylogenetic relationships between taxa. Its applications vary from linguistic analysis to the …

A new formal classification of the genus Eucalyptus is presented. It divides the genus into
seven polytypic subgenera: E. subg. Angophora, E. subg. Corymbia, E. subg. Blakella, E …

Abstract—Data scored for cladistic analyses may be quantitative or qualitative, continuous or
discrete, and show overlapping or non-overlapping values between taxa. Quantitative and …

Multistate morphological characters have generally been treated as either “unordered” or
“ordered” in phylogenetic analyses using parsimony. Because ordering relations do not …

Although many of the goals and concepts of qualitative morphological analysis and
morphometrics are similar, systematists have largely rejected the use of morphometric …

When analysing phylogcnetic relationships at low laxonomic levels it is often the ease that
many of the features that can be used to separate taxa show continuous variation. The …

We present a phylogenetic analysis and comparison of structural features of chloroplast
genomes for 39 species of the eucalypt group (genera Eucalyptus, Corymbia, Angophora …
