From the late-20th century onwards, it was superseded by cladistics, which rejects plesiomorphies in attempting to resolve the phylogeny of Earth's various organisms through time . systematists generally make extensive use of molecular biology and of computer programs to study organisms.

Some systematists prefer to exclude taxa based on the number of unknown character entries ( " ? " ) they exhibit, or because they tend to " jump around " the tree in analyses ( i . e ., they are " wildcards " ).

"Without specimens like those in the Herbaria, worked over by generations of systematists, " or experts on classification, " you have no hope of decyphering the genetic diversity of life, " says Edward O . Wilson, the sociobiologist and ant expert.

This uniqueness and stability are, of course, a result of the acceptance by working systematists ( biologists specializing in taxonomy ), not merely of the binomial names themselves, but of the rules governing the use of these names, which are laid down in formal nomenclature codes.

He notes that it was remarkable that biological research since Darwin had focussed mainly on comparative anatomy and embryology, whereas Darwin himself was interested in " questions which concern the living animal as a whole ", and observes that there are " comparatively few true naturalists ", as opposed to " anatomists, microscopists, systematists, or collectors ".
