3 Karl Linné (Carolus Linnaeus) ( ) History of Genetics in Evolution p.3/39
4 Monophyly Monophyletic: having a common ancestor which is not the ancestor of any of the other species being discussed. (This definition works for cases where there are fossil forms being included, and those where they are not, and works whether we are discussing only a fixed set of species or all species descended from some ancestor.) History of Genetics in Evolution p.4/39
