UE's Learning outcomes

The lecture of « Taxonomie numérique et phylogénétique » aims to teach students to (i) history of Systematics ; (ii) methodology in Phenetics and Phylogenetics; (iii) Taxonomy of Cryptic taxa ; (iv) Taxonomy of fossil taxa. Students will be also teach to particular vocabulary and the evolutionary theories associated to systematics.
