On the relationship between content, ancestor, and ancestry in phylogenetic nomenclature
2003
Härlin, Mikael
In this paper I draw attention to the concepts of content and ancestry in phylogenetic nomenclature. I argue that these concepts are tightly linked and that they cannot be separated as suggested by Bryant and Cantino [Biol. Rev. 77 (2002) 39] in their recent response to a critique of phylogenetic nomenclature. In addition, I argue that the basic assumption in phylogenetic nomenclature that a taxon name always refers to the same ancestor or ancestry is questionable.
