Statistical tests for taxonomic distinctiveness from observations of monophyly.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Feb 2007

Rosenberg Noah A

Abstract excerpt

The observation of monophyly for a specified set of genealogical lineages is often used to place the lineages into a distinctive taxonomic entity. However, it is sometimes possible that monophyly of the lineages can occur by chance as an outcome of the random branching of lineages within a single taxon. Thus, especially for small samples, an observation of monophyly for a set of lineages--even if strongly...
