Chiroptera skull and dentition characteristics Be sure to note if incisors (upper/lower), canines, premolars and molars are present. Also note special features of molar teeth in the bobcat and the mule deer. If it’s easier to instead do this on the field guide with an annotated picture of each skull type, that works too – just note that here.

Animal Phylogeny

Cladistics is a method of biological classification where organisms are classified based on their ancestors and their relationship with them. It is defined as the concepts and methods for determining the branching patterns of evolution and evolutionary history. Some scientists, however, have preferred the term phylogenetic systematics or phylogenetic taxonomy to emphasize the reliance on a phylogeny for classification. It is the most common and accepted method for classifying organisms.
