PHYLOCODE RULES OF PHYLOGENETIC NOMENCLATURE

NITIN JAISWAL, PROF. RUP NARAYAN

Abstract

Phylogenetic nomenclature employs specifies (such as species, specimens, and apomorphies) to identify actual creatures and a definition based on phylogeny (i.e., ancestry and descent) to delimit the content of taxa. The definition's formula suggests an ancestor. Therefore, that progenitor and all of its offspring constitute the defined taxon. As a result, a phylogenetic hypothesis determines the content of a phylogenetically defined taxon.
