Wayne Paul Maddison, FRSC, is a professor and Canada Research Chair at the departments of zoology and botany at the University of British Columbia,〔 and the Scientific Director of the Beaty Biodiversity Museum. His research concerns the phylogeny, biodiversity, and evolution of jumping spiders (Salticidae), of which he has discovered new species and genera. He has also done research in phylogenetic theory, developing and perfecting various methods used in comparative biology, such as character state inference in internal nodes through maximum parsimony, squared-change parsimony, or character correlation through the concentrated changes test or pairwise comparisons. In collaboration with David Maddison, he worked on the (Mesquite ) open-source phylogeny software, the (MacClade ) program, and the Tree of Life Web Project.〔 His research has led him to discover new species of jumping spiders in Sarawak and Papua New Guinea. ==Selected publications== * * * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Wayne Maddison」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
