New methodological developments in morphological phylogenetics---including approaches for analyzing ontogenetic data, fossils, morphometric characters, intraspecific variation, and hybrid taxa---are summarized in this book. The actual practice of morphological phylogenetics is also evaluated, especially in regard to its controversial use in the study of the evolution of morphological characters.
