Definition
Cladistics is a hierarchical classification technique which reveals evolution courses of organisms based on their shared characters. It was originally introduced and developed by Hennig (1966, republished in English in 1999). Cladistics generates phylogenetic trees (Fig. 1), which are acyclic tree graphs that show the relationships between the studied entities and are called “cladograms.”
