The Impact of Evolution ... Cladistics, however, ignores when and where a branch occurs, tries to use purely objective criteria, and defines each branch point by a fundamental character of evolutionary significance. Both methods have their strengths and weaknesses.

Special Issue "Cladistic Analysis and Molecular Evolution" ... Cladistics comes from the Greek word clade, which means branch. In this case, the branches or clades are referring to parts of evolutionary trees. In modern systematics, cladistics refers to a method of inferring evolutionary trees based on character state data.

Cladistics would seem at first to be more objective then the linnean and linnean-based systems, simply because in getting rid of higher taxa it also does away of the arbitrariness of whether a higher taxon is, say an order or a class. ...
