Zachriel Bites the Big One!

-
For years Zachriel has been running around claiming that a nested hierarchy is what we would expect from evolutionary processes.

Yet a peer-reviewed paper from 1998 refutes his claim:

"The use of hierarchies as organizational models in systematics", Biological Journal of the Linnean Society (1998), 63: 1–49.

Regardless of what is eventually learned about the evolution of Clarkia/Heterogaura, the complex nature of evolutionary processes yields patterns that are more complex than can be represented by the simple hierarchical models of either monophyletic systematization or Linnaean classification.

I hope you choke on it Zachriel...
