A new species of beetle is discovered. Explain how you would classify this beetle (for example, what steps would you take to classify the new species).
On Jun 12, 2024
Cladists would classify a new species of beetle by identifying most recent common ancestor by identifying shared derived characters of known beetle species and comparing to the outgroup. Concepts to Consider: Cladists study shared and ancestral characters and attempt to identify outgroups; molecular forensics can help identify the evolutionary history of new species.
