What is the difference between a cladogram and a phylogenetic tree?
How are taxonomic characters recognized? How are such characters used to construct a cladogram?
A 2015 article in Nature has summarized the early history of jawed vertebrates using highlights from recent discoveries and how they have changed our understanding of vertebrate evolution.
