Abstract

Principles of phylogenetic reconstruction are reviewed and the Wagner algorithm for building trees from many characters simultaneously is described. An example worked by hand is presented using 5 brain characters of 4 spp. [Erinaceus europaeus, Ovis aries, Macropus rufogriseus and Ornithorhynchus anatinus].
