A synthetic phylogeny of freshwater crayfish: insights for conservation. [PDF]
Philos Trans R Soc Lond B Biol Sci, 2015 Phylogenetic systematics is heading for a renaissance where we shift from considering our phylogenetic estimates as a static image in a published paper and taxonomies as a hardcopy checklist to treating both the phylogenetic estimate and dynamic taxonomies as metadata for further analyses. The Open Tree of Life project (
