It is easy to imagine such situations : for example , predators that learn to avoid distasteful prey on the basis of their aposematic ( warning ) coloration are more likely to encounter common than rare phenotypes , so prey with a ...

A group of species ( e.g. , 1 , 2 , 3 ) with a recent common ancestor forms a clade ; a group with the same level of structural organization ( e.g. , 7-11 ) forms a grade . Members of a clade may belong to different grades because of ...

INFERRING PHYLOGENY FROM MORPHOLOGICAL DATA The problem of phylogenetic inference is to join species into monophyletic groups that reflect common ancestry , without being misled by homoplasy and differential evolutionary rates .
