===What is not a cladogram=== {{Refimprove section|date=January 2021}} A cladogram is the diagrammatic result of an analysis, which groups taxa on the basis of synapomorphies alone. There are many other phylogenetic algorithms that treat data somewhat differently, and result in phylogenetic trees that look like cladograms but are not cladograms. For example, phenetic algorithms, such as UPGMA and Neighbor-Joining, group by overall similarity, and treat both synapomorphies and symplesiomorphies as evidence of grouping, The resulting diagrams are phenograms, not cladograms, Similarly, the results of model-based methods (Maximum Likelihood or Bayesian approaches) that take into account both branching order and "branch length," count both synapomorphies and autapomorphies as evidence for or against grouping, The diagrams resulting from those sorts of analysis are not cladograms, either.<ref>{{cite journal|doi=10.1111/cla.12144|title=What is a cladogram and what is not?|journal=Cladistics|volume=32|issue=5|pages=573β576|year=2016|last1=Brower|first1=Andrew V.Z.|pmid=34740305|s2cid=85725091|doi-access=free}}</ref>
