Systematics
The scientific study of the diversity of organisms and their evolutionary relationships Taxonomy – the science of naming,
describing, and classifying organisms Classification – arranging organisms into
groups based on their similarities, which reflect historical relationships among lineages

Binomial Nomenclature
Carolus Linnaeus simplified the complicated, older system of classification
Binomial System of Nomenclature Makes classification an
international science Each species assigned a
two-part name

How to Write Scientific Names
1. First part of a scientific name = genus
2. Second part of scientific name = specific epithet
3. Genus name is always capitalized.
4. Specific epithet is not capitalized.
5. Scientific names are typed in italics
6. Scientific names are underlined (separately) if handwritten
7. Ex. Scientific name for dog
Canis familiaris or Canis familiaris

*A taxon is a formal grouping of organisms at a specific level, such as the genus.

Phylogeny
Goal of systematics is to determine phylogeny – evolutionary relationships Homology – implies evolution from a common
ancestor Shared ancestral characters – suggest a distant
common ancestor Shared derived characters – indicate a more recent
common ancestor Molecular systematics – compares DNA for
assessing evolutionary relationships

Cladograms
Diagrams that illustrate phylogeny Base of cladogram – common ancestor for all
taxa being analyzed Branch point (node) – immediate common
ancestor of the next group Example cladograms p.480
