Quantitative Phyletics and the Evolution of Anurans

Kluge, A. G., Farris, J. S.·1969·Systematic Biology

Abstract

In the quantitative phyletic approach to evolutionary taxonomy, quantitative methods are used for inferring evolutionary relationships. The methods are chosen both for their operationism and for their connection to evolutionary theory and the goals of evolutionary taxonomy. As an example of this approach, a detailed analysis of a set of anuran characters is presented and taxonomic conclusions based on those characters are drawn. The methods and conclusions of the quantitative phyletic analysis are compared and contrasted with the methods of previous workers in the field of anuran classification.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
