The terminology used by the authors is in line with many other taxonomic studies and does not negatively affect their main results; some improvements may nevertheless be possible. Contrasting the term "chemotaxonomic" with "phenotypic" is not recommended. The usage of the term "coherent taxon" (or equivalent) is cautioned against. See the ((text/phylogenetic-inference#the-role-of-phylogenies-in-taxonomic-classification==LPSN phylogeny page)) for details.
