Definition

Glossary of "Cladistics (2nd ed.)" by Kitching et al. (1998)

• (1) A group is diagnosed as monophyletic by the discover of homologies (synapomorphies). Also known as a clade. (2) A group that includes a most recent common ancestor plus all and only all of its descendants. See also component, paraphyly, polyphyly.

"Phylogenetics" by Wiley (1981), p. 7

• A natural taxon composed of two or more species comprises a monophyletic group. Another term for a monophyletic group is a clade. (Species, insofar as they are natural, are a priori monophyletic. In other words, the terms "monophyletic", "paraphyletic", or "oplyphyletic" do not really apply to natural species.)
