All methods currently employed in cladistic biogeography usually give contrasting results and are theoretically disputed. In two overlooked papers, Hovenkamp (1997, 2001) strongly criticized methods currently used by biogeographers and proposed two other methods. However, his criticisms have remained unanswered and his methods rarely applied. I used three different data sets to show the superiority of Hovenkamp's methods. Both methods proposed by Hovenkamp do not suffer from the unrealistic assumptions that underlie other methods commonly used in cladistic biogeography. The method proposed in 2001 is more powerful than the previous method published in 1997, because it does not use a priori assumptions about the areas involved. However, the method proposed in 1997 may be a valid alternative for large data sets. © The Willi Hennig Society 2007.
目前在支序生物地理学中使用的所有方法通常都会得出相互矛盾的结果，并且在理论上存在争议。在两篇被忽视的论文中，霍温坎普（1997年、2001年）强烈批评了生物地理学家目前使用的方法，并提出了另外两种方法。然而，他的批评一直未得到回应，他的方法也很少被应用。我使用了三个不同的数据集来证明霍温坎普方法的优越性。霍温坎普提出的两种方法都不存在其他支序生物地理学常用方法所依据的不切实际的假设。2001年提出的方法比1997年发表的先前方法更强大，因为它不使用关于所涉及区域的先验假设。然而，1997年提出的方法对于大数据集可能是一个有效的替代方法。©威利·亨尼希学会2007年。
