AMNIOTE PHYLOGENY AND THE IMPORTANCE OF FOSSILS
- J. Gauthier, A. G. Kluge, T. Rowe
- Biology
- 1 June 1988
Abstract— Several prominent cladists have questioned the importance of fossils in phylogenctic inference, and it is becoming increasingly popular to simply fit extinct forms, if they are considered… Expand
Assembling the Squamate Tree of Life: Perspectives from the Phenotype and the Fossil Record
- J. Gauthier, M. Kearney, J. Maisano, O. Rieppel, Adam D. Behlke
- Biology
- 18 May 2012
Abstract
We assembled a dataset of 192 carefully selected species—51 extinct and 141 extant—and 976 apomorphies distributed among 610 phenotypic characters to investigate the phylogeny of Squamata… Expand
DEVELOPING A PROTOCOL FOR THE CONVERSION OF RANK-BASED TAXON NAMES TO PHYLOGENETICALLY DEFINED CLADE NAMES, AS EXEMPLIFIED BY TURTLES
- W. Joyce, J. Parham, J. Gauthier
- Biology
- 1 September 2004
Abstract We present a rank-free phylogenetic nomenclature for 25 well-established ancient clades of living turtles. This is the first attempt to document fully the nomenclatural history of a clade… Expand
Phylogeny as a Central Principle in Taxonomy: Phylogenetic Definitions of Taxon Names
- K. Queiroz, J. Gauthier
- Biology
- 1 December 1990
Defining the names of taxa in terms of common ancestry, that is, using phylogenetic definitions of taxon names, departs from a tradition of character-based definitions by granting the concept of… Expand

- Biology
- 1988
In this paper our primary objective is to analyze phylogenetic relationships within a subtaxon of Sauna, the Lepidosauromorpha (see Addendum, p. 94). Lepidosauromorpha includes the following saiunan… Expand
