[edit] Early tetrapod relationships worked out
Ruda et. al. (2003) found Lepospondyli to be the sister group to Amniota but also demonstrated that Westlothiana was the sister taxon to Lepospondyli. Given their cladistic analysis, is Amphibia really polyphyletic?

- The phologeny of basal amphibian/reptilimorphs changes every week. I think it's important to wait for some kind of consensus to form in the literature before making drastic changes to the classification. I'd say if two or three papers from the last few years agree, we can implement it. Dinoguy2 19:19, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
