It should however be noted that these molecular results are still controversial mainly because they are not reflected by morphological data and thus not accepted by many systematists.

Basic systematists are going out of style, Dr . Condon says, as universities put their money and staff into more molecular taxonomic projects, like mapping genomes.
23.
Many modern systematists, such as advocates of phylogenetic nomenclature, use Reptilia, the reptiles; birds are descendants of reptiles but are not included in the Reptilia.

MacLeay was one of the first systematists to note the difference between similarity due to true relation, called affinity, and similarity due to function, called analogy.

During this time, professional collectors gathered specimens for museums, menageries, and systematists including Albert G�nther and John Edward Gray continued to contribute new names for new lemur species.
26.
Some systematists prefer to exclude characters known to be, or suspected to be, highly homoplastic or that have a large number of unknown entries ( " ? " ).
27.
Even more important than the number of kingdoms is the fact that the definition ( taxonomic concept ) and circumscription of the recognized kingdoms are not yet agreed by different systematists.

Apparently among modern phylogenetic systematists, Wagner is alone in having been mentioned in a Hollywood film ( " A New Leaf ", starring Elaine May and Walter Matthau ).
29.
By the 1970s / 1980s, nearly all Hydrozoan systematists were in agreement that these genera did indeed belong in that group and the order Chondrophora became defunct, replaced by the Capitata.
30.
Sterculiaceae had previously been recognized as a family by most systematists; in its traditional sense the family includes about 70 genera, totalling around 1, 500 species of tropical trees and shrubs.
