Phylogenetic systematics, a.k.a. evolutionary trees : Reading trees: A quick review. A phylogeny, or evolutionary tree, represents the evolutionary relationships among a set of organisms or groups of organisms, called taxa (singular: taxon).ll the members of the group of interest are more closely related to each other than they are to the outgroup. Hence, the outgroup stems from the base of the tree. An outgroup can give you a sense of where on the bigger tree of life the main group of organisms falls.

The dictionary meaning of clump is âsit togetherâ. And the meaning of âclumped distributionâ carries no special meaning. To the best of my understanding a clumped distribution is when things stay together. A uniform distribution is when a random variable is uniformly distributed in its entire range. A clumped distribution is when it occurs in clusters. A good example of clumped distribution will be the distribution of human population centers on the map of a country. Human population is clustered around big cities. In fact, most distributions should be clumped. If I were to plot the heights of adult humans, it may be clumped around two main centers (average heights of men and women). Even wild flowers in a meadow are clumped around where ever they happen to be. An image search for âclumped distributionâ shows you tens of examples.
