What is a cladogram:

  • A cladogram is an infographic that shows the relationships of scientific taxa. These can be useful to show how animals are related in almost any article on organisms.

What can have a cladogram:

  • Any article with enough information in the literature about its systematics can have a cladogram added. A single cladogram can be used on multiple articles.
    • Exception: Cladograms cannot be created in situations where the taxon has not appeared in at least one published analysis. Linnaean systematics cannot be translated into cladograms. Original research cladograms are not allowed.

Formats for cladograms:

  • The most significant features of cladograms can often be altered to fit specific articles with limited space.
  • The font size can be reduced with larger cladograms so that less space is taken up.
    • Default font size is 85% point size but can be changed between 75 and 100% upon request.
  • Line lengths affect how far the cladogram reaches across the page.
    • To fit images in the whitespace beside a cladogram with over 15 taxa a size below 90% is recommended, but sizes upwards that can be used to fill the cladogram across the whole article left-right.
  • Boxing a cladogram can allow for it to be positioned in line with text, and onto specific sides of a page.
    • Exception: Very large cladograms (~40+ taxa) should never be boxed, as they will take up far too much vertical space.
  • When specific formats are wanted please mention them in the cladogram request, otherwise Cladogram Creators will use their own discretion.

Images in cladograms:

  • Images like silhouettes or lateral views of skulls or life restorations can be added to cladograms
    • Note: when adding images, it is important to ensure that |middle is placed before the |thumb or equivalent, otherwise Firefox will render the images aligned to the bottom of the text and the taxon named will become uncentered.

Tips for Cladogram Creators:

  • Try to avoid edit conflicts by promptly replying to all requests that you intend to work on. Losing all your progress isn't fun.
  • Feel free to ask for help from others, we're all in this together.
  • Keep the OR rules in mind when creating cladograms. Don't add unpublished information to them.
  • Feel free to experiment with different features.

amiiform cladogram

[edit]

Can I get the cladogram from "The monophyly of the Caturidae (Pisces; Actinopterygii) and the phylogeny of the Halecomorphi." with no changes? Thanks in advance! SeismicShrimp (talk) 18:59, 16 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Yes —Trilletrollet [ Talk | Contribs ] 19:20, 16 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@SeismicShrimp: Not an exact copy —Trilletrollet [ Talk | Contribs ] 19:42, 16 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure how this works, but I need one

[edit]

for Taraxacum mongolicum please and thank you https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0926669023014772#fig0010 figure 2 I think MallardTV Talk to me! 23:36, 19 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

On it. A Cynical Idealist (talk) 03:36, 20 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
What exactly is it you need this cladogram to show? A Cynical Idealist (talk) 03:38, 20 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I believe just each species in the genus. Probably roll the 1 and 2 together so just one entry per species. Cheers, Dracophyllum 03:46, 20 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Figure 2 is a phylogenetic tree of individual genomes from the plants sampled by the study. Did you mean figure 3?. And if you did mean figure 3, did you want the tree based on chloroplast genomes or ITS sequences? A Cynical Idealist (talk) 06:00, 20 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I reckon they will want chloroplast genomes. Cheers, Dracophyllum 06:05, 20 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@MallardTV: can you clarify this please? A Cynical Idealist (talk) 22:05, 20 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
They should by all means clarify what they want. My understanding is that CG is more accurate/reliable for interspecies relationships, and ITS reflects recent developments (eg hybrids) better. Dracophyllum 22:08, 20 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I honestly don’t write plant articles all too much so I’m not sure @A Cynical Idealist MallardTV Talk to me! 22:11, 20 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
What is it that you're trying to illustrate exactly? That may help me determine which diagram you need. A Cynical Idealist (talk) 23:23, 20 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Here's what I've got based on figure 3. A Cynical Idealist (talk) 23:31, 20 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Obaichthyidae cladogram

[edit]

Currently working on a revamp of the Obaichthyidae page and i was wondering if I could get a cladogram of figure 16 from "Phylogenetic Interrelationships of Ginglymodian Fishes (Actinopterygii: Neopterygii)", specifically at "C". Thanks in advance. SeismicShrimp (talk) 15:46, 22 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
