Cladogram • Cladogram – all taxa are at the same level • Tells us how long ago speciation for each taxa happened http://evolution.berkeley.edu/
Phylogram • Phylogram – the length of the edge indicates how much evolution happened since the last common ancestor • Tells us how closely two species are related
