Cladistics is a method of biological classification based on the concept of common ancestry, where organisms are grouped together based on shared derived characteristics (synapomorphies) that reflect their evolutionary relationships. This approach emphasizes the branching patterns of evolution, creating a cladogram that illustrates the evolutionary lineage and divergence of species. Cladistics aims to provide a more accurate representation of evolutionary history compared to traditional classification methods.
