Scorpion Phylogeny
I was the coordinator for the scorpion portion of the Tree of Life World Wide Web project by David Maddison and Wayne Maddison. For this reason, my phylogenies are presented in that context. The cladograms are pretty self-explanatory. I have added taxon names to the branches to provide some correlation with the classification. Fossil taxa are marked with a dagger (+).
