Difference between Phylogenetic nomenclature and Pterosaur

Phylogenetic nomenclature vs. Pterosaur

Phylogenetic nomenclature, often called cladistic nomenclature, is a method of nomenclature for taxa in biology that uses phylogenetic definitions for taxon names as explained below. Pterosaurs (from the Greek πτερόσαυρος,, meaning "winged lizard") were flying reptiles of the extinct clade or order Pterosauria.

Similarities between Phylogenetic nomenclature and Pterosaur

Phylogenetic nomenclature and Pterosaur have 10 things in common (in Unionpedia): Bird, Clade, Cladistics, Convergent evolution, Kevin Padian, Paraphyly, Phylogenetics, Proceedings of the Royal Society, Reptile, Taxonomy (biology).

Bird

Birds, also known as Aves, are a group of endothermic vertebrates, characterised by feathers, toothless beaked jaws, the laying of hard-shelled eggs, a high metabolic rate, a four-chambered heart, and a strong yet lightweight skeleton.

Clade

A clade (from κλάδος, klados, "branch"), also known as monophyletic group, is a group of organisms that consists of a common ancestor and all its lineal descendants, and represents a single "branch" on the "tree of life".

Cladistics

Cladistics (from Greek κλάδος, cládos, i.e., "branch") is an approach to biological classification in which organisms are categorized in groups ("clades") based on the most recent common ancestor.

Paraphyly

In taxonomy, a group is paraphyletic if it consists of the group's last common ancestor and all descendants of that ancestor excluding a few—typically only one or two—monophyletic subgroups.

Phylogenetics

In biology, phylogenetics (Greek: φυλή, φῦλον – phylé, phylon.
