Fossils improve phylogenetic analyses of morphological characters [PDF]
AbstractFossils provide our only direct window into evolutionary events in the distant past. Incorporating them into phylogenetic hypotheses of living clades can help elucidate macroevolutionary patterns and processes, such as ancestral states and diversification dynamics.

A morphological analyser for Maltese
Abstract This article describes the development of a free/open-source morphological description of Maltese, originally created as the analysis component in a rule-based machine translation system for Maltese to Arabic and later applied to other tasks. The lexicon formalism we use is lttoolbox, part of the Apertium machine translation platform.

W(h)ither Fossils? Studying Morphological Character Evolution in the Age of Molecular Sequences [PDF]
A major challenge in the post-genomics era will be to integrate molecular sequence data from extant organisms with morphological data from fossil and extant taxa into a single, coherent picture of phylogenetic relationships; only then will these ...

Crinoid phylogeny: a preliminary analysis (Echinodermata: Crinoidea) [PDF]
We describe the first molecular and morphological analysis of extant crinoid high-level inter-relationships. Nuclear and mitochondrial gene sequences and a cladistically coded matrix of 30 morphological characters are presented, and analysed by ...
