A report from the First International Phylogenetic Nomenclature Meeting recently published in Cladistics conveys several misconceptions about the PhyloCode and presents an erroneous interpretation of discussions that took place at that meeting. Contrary to Pickett's assertions, the PhyloCode is designed to name clades, not paraphyletic groups; the rejection of ranks has never been a fundamental principle of phylogenetic nomenclature; and specifiers under the PhyloCode differ in several ways from types under rank-based nomenclature.
最近发表在《系统发育分类学》上的一份来自第一届国际系统发育命名会议的报告传达了关于《系统发育法规》的几个误解,并对该会议上进行的讨论提出了错误的解释。与皮克特的断言相反,《系统发育法规》旨在为进化枝命名,而非并系类群;摒弃分类阶元从来都不是系统发育命名法的基本原则;并且《系统发育法规》下的指定物在几个方面与基于分类阶元的命名法下的模式不同。
