    • Phenetic classification is a type of numerical taxonomy. In this type of classification the organisms are arranged according to overall similarity of existing organisms based on available characters. It is also called adansonian taxonomy because the same was first attempted by Adanson (1763), of course on the basis of external traits only. Numerical taxonomy evolved around 1950. Phenetics is an attempt to classify organisms based on overall similarity, usually by morphology or other observable traits, regardless of their phylogeny or evolutionary relation. It includes various forms of clustering and ordination. Phenetic classification of organisms is based on measurable similarities and differences rather than genetic makeup and evolutionary descent.
