Posted by: RSNewton at Sat Aug 9 18:35:21 2003 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by RSNewton ] Since you cited Utiger et al., you should be familiar with their tree. Their findings show that all species formerly classified in Elaphe, together with the Lampropeltini, form a clade with Ptyas as the outgroup. How can a clade be polyphyletic? Where is the evidence of polyphyly? Why are you so sure that Elaphe is polyphyletic if there is no evidence of it? | ||
