This raises the "species problem": what, if anything, is a species? <br /> <br />Resolution of the species problem is complicated by the fact that species are considered "fundamental units" of biological theories in at least two senses. Species are units of taxonomy: they are the smallest "real" groups into which organisms can be classified. Species are also units of evolution: they are the entities that change over time due to Natural Selection. Following Darwin, philosophers of biology traditionally argue that these units can only be identified if species are nominal entities. <br /> <br />More recently, paleontologists suggest that species may be "fundamental units" in a third sense: as units of selection in a higher-order process of differential speciation and extinction. Species selection would therefore have a place in a hierarchy of selection processes. <br /> <br />At lower levels of selection, units of selection emerge from former units of evolution due to intrinsic functional integration. If species emerge as units of selection in the same way, then the species that participate in species selection would not be coextensive with units of evolution: since functional integration had broken down within T. cynocephalus, Benjamin would be part of the latter unit, but not the former. Nominal entities are defined by extension, and so—contrary to the received view—species meeting these criteria cannot be nominal entities. <br /> <br />I therefore argue that species must be natural kinds if they emerge as units of selection in a hierarchy of selection processes.

Following Darwin, philosophers of biology traditionally argue that these units can only be identified if species are nominal entities.\r\n\r\nMore recently, paleontologists suggest that species may be \"fundamental units\" in a third sense: as units of selection in a higher-order process of differential speciation and extinction. Species selection would therefore have a place in a hierarchy of selection processes.\r\n\r\nAt lower levels of selection, units of selection emerge from former units of evolution due to intrinsic functional integration. If species emerge as units of selection in the same way, then the species that participate in species selection would not be coextensive with units of evolution: since functional integration had broken down within T. cynocephalus, Benjamin would be part of the latter unit, but not the former. Nominal entities are defined by extension, and so—contrary to the received view—species meeting these criteria cannot be nominal entities.\r\n\r\nI therefore argue that species must be natural kinds if they emerge as units of selection in a hierarchy of selection processes. Given the simultaneous identity of units of selection, units of evolution, and units of taxonomy, I suggest an application of the Kripke/Putnam model of natural kinds that is consistent with the theory of Natural Selection. I also consider a reading of Darwin's work that demonstrates the viability of this model.","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/13925510/Systematics_and_the_Selection_of_Species","translated_internal_url":"","created_at":"2015-07-11T13:13:01.972-07:00","preview_url":null,"current_user_can_edit":null,"current_user_is_owner":null,"owner_id":32843849,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"document_type":"paper","co_author_tags":[],"downloadable_attachments":[{"id":38160684,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/38160684/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"Systematics_and_the_Selection_of_Species.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/38160684/download_file?st=MTczMjQ1MTI5Niw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"Systematics_and_the_Selection_of_Species.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/38160684/Systematics_and_the_Selection_of_Species-libre.pdf?1436646205=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DSystematics_and_the_Selection_of_Species.pdf\u0026Expires=1732438168\u0026Signature=WCs9R24XZywL0LWpV-cRwSz~JgcfnuqhBu9UE7vKeNbOEOmsn7xlUg4ljhzyaAgMUXDNMU7DNsZazh6Rp~m3ffRxe9vt2J0zxK1X6aGeDsBuMlaYXZ7AKAghtPrcBf7PZbNvHoitiCT54X7O6XcNhaN3fJcQMup2u0OygzFquDp0b55EOpegL9kgroyHtlqRjDcJzrcTi3vn9m92KwAbOBRMSD~NP~Uw6bVpw94xqDf5u5SwV10P1yYC35I~PfD5w-QTu8MzEuhnssVej~oAp--1Cy0dM-dGs78ntRE6~ay4I1fHSLD~4JN7H19owK81LHb-t7pSKcCA7cJxiTXPvQ__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"slug":"Systematics_and_the_Selection_of_Species","translated_slug":"","page_count":169,"language":"en","content_type":"Work","owner":{"id":32843849,"first_name":"Leonard","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Finkelman","page_name":"LeonardFinkelman","domain_name":"linfield","created_at":"2015-07-06T11:36:24.583-07:00","display_name":"Leonard Finkelman","url":"https://linfield.academia.edu/LeonardFinkelman"},"attachments":[{"id":38160684,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/38160684/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"Systematics_and_the_Selection_of_Species.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/38160684/download_file?st=MTczMjQ1MTI5Niw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"Systematics_and_the_Selection_of_Species.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/38160684/Systematics_and_the_Selection_of_Species-libre.pdf?1436646205=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DSystematics_and_the_Selection_of_Species.pdf\u0026Expires=1732438168\u0026Signature=WCs9R24XZywL0LWpV-cRwSz~JgcfnuqhBu9UE7vKeNbOEOmsn7xlUg4ljhzyaAgMUXDNMU7DNsZazh6Rp~m3ffRxe9vt2J0zxK1X6aGeDsBuMlaYXZ7AKAghtPrcBf7PZbNvHoitiCT54X7O6XcNhaN3fJcQMup2u0OygzFquDp0b55EOpegL9kgroyHtlqRjDcJzrcTi3vn9m92KwAbOBRMSD~NP~Uw6bVpw94xqDf5u5SwV10P1yYC35I~PfD5w-QTu8MzEuhnssVej~oAp--1Cy0dM-dGs78ntRE6~ay4I1fHSLD~4JN7H19owK81LHb-t7pSKcCA7cJxiTXPvQ__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"research_interests":[{"id":155,"name":"Evolutionary Biology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Evolutionary_Biology"},{"id":803,"name":"Philosophy","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Philosophy"},{"id":823,"name":"Philosophy of Biology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Philosophy_of_Biology"},{"id":8345,"name":"Multilevel selection (Evolutionary Biology)","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Multilevel_selection_Evolutionary_Biology_"},{"id":27854,"name":"Darwin","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Darwin"},{"id":96501,"name":"Species Concepts","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Species_Concepts"}],"urls":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData });

If palaeontology is to be conceived as something other than a handmaiden to neontological study, however, the palaeontologist has good reason to assume otherwise.","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/23592588/More_Parsimony_More_Problems_A_Philosophy_of_Palaeontology_Perspective_on_ParsimonyGate","translated_internal_url":"","created_at":"2016-03-22T20:15:00.276-07:00","preview_url":null,"current_user_can_edit":null,"current_user_is_owner":null,"owner_id":32843849,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"document_type":"other","co_author_tags":[],"downloadable_attachments":[{"id":44012822,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/44012822/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"Poster.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/44012822/download_file?st=MTczMjQ1MTI5Niw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"More_Parsimony_More_Problems_A_Philosoph.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/44012822/Poster-libre.pdf?1458702626=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DMore_Parsimony_More_Problems_A_Philosoph.pdf\u0026Expires=1732438168\u0026Signature=Zn4IynxV-onDJMK-9amP3nRauLnuI26FOwFmKWydPyXxIOYpk2U07hB1uYLVB3qIMj-h2TJh6fMHEV53VcGiO-v5UhisHL4vbv77ogIIdRpMlsIXO4N7SrnlvE84ihM-p5S1ohBVwbBwTV4AkrqxQNI9MRCys4dklkejT63Aice89GppaueUGMzQk0BzlGf7AEB1Lmrz5FBcLvKNB9B9g1QuEXb7CH4YPapp37opDLj5yskPoRljui8pb~S1VN1t7oBgBbTAWi3XF8HUHBqPQ8r-gpaDk~G1kHw4X0jwNLoOKBI2yT5TYA4vtprRHlOAix8A9EzrrMbI7ebYXoNjnA__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"slug":"More_Parsimony_More_Problems_A_Philosophy_of_Palaeontology_Perspective_on_ParsimonyGate","translated_slug":"","page_count":1,"language":"en","content_type":"Work","owner":{"id":32843849,"first_name":"Leonard","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Finkelman","page_name":"LeonardFinkelman","domain_name":"linfield","created_at":"2015-07-06T11:36:24.583-07:00","display_name":"Leonard Finkelman","url":"https://linfield.academia.edu/LeonardFinkelman"},"attachments":[{"id":44012822,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/44012822/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"Poster.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/44012822/download_file?st=MTczMjQ1MTI5Niw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"More_Parsimony_More_Problems_A_Philosoph.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/44012822/Poster-libre.pdf?1458702626=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DMore_Parsimony_More_Problems_A_Philosoph.pdf\u0026Expires=1732438168\u0026Signature=Zn4IynxV-onDJMK-9amP3nRauLnuI26FOwFmKWydPyXxIOYpk2U07hB1uYLVB3qIMj-h2TJh6fMHEV53VcGiO-v5UhisHL4vbv77ogIIdRpMlsIXO4N7SrnlvE84ihM-p5S1ohBVwbBwTV4AkrqxQNI9MRCys4dklkejT63Aice89GppaueUGMzQk0BzlGf7AEB1Lmrz5FBcLvKNB9B9g1QuEXb7CH4YPapp37opDLj5yskPoRljui8pb~S1VN1t7oBgBbTAWi3XF8HUHBqPQ8r-gpaDk~G1kHw4X0jwNLoOKBI2yT5TYA4vtprRHlOAix8A9EzrrMbI7ebYXoNjnA__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"research_interests":[{"id":169,"name":"Systematics (Taxonomy)","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Systematics_Taxonomy_"},{"id":417,"name":"Paleontology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Paleontology"},{"id":803,"name":"Philosophy","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Philosophy"},{"id":821,"name":"Philosophy of Science","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Philosophy_of_Science"},{"id":54160,"name":"Cladistics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Cladistics"},{"id":753103,"name":"History and Philosophy of Paleontology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/History_and_Philosophy_of_Paleontology"}],"urls":[{"id":6936043,"url":"http://www.extinctblog.org/extinct/2016/2/13/mo-parsimony-mo-problems"}]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="profile--tab_heading_container js-section-heading" data-section="Talks" id="Talks"><h3 class="profile--tab_heading_container">Talks by Leonard Finkelman</h3></div><div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="23592474"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" href="https://www.academia.edu/23592474/Whither_Benjamin_A_Tasmanian_Tigers_View_of_the_Species_Problem"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of Whither Benjamin?

I argue that operational species concepts in neontological study are ambiguous about Benjamin’s classification because those concepts do not specify clear conditions for predicating extinction upon a taxon.

I argue that that conceptual clarity follows from paleontology’s operational commitment to a single extinction concept, i.e., demographic. One of two inferences must follow: either paleontological phylogeny should be recognized as parataxonomic relative to neontological phylogeny or neontological species concepts should take care to specify particular extinction concepts.

We conclude with a number of suggestions to academic colleagues on why and how to foster further growth of public philosophy for the benefit of society at large and of the discipline itself.","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/13924244/The_Value_of_Public_Philosophy_to_Philosophers","translated_internal_url":"","created_at":"2015-07-11T11:42:06.735-07:00","preview_url":null,"current_user_can_edit":null,"current_user_is_owner":null,"owner_id":32843849,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"document_type":"paper","co_author_tags":[{"id":2889847,"work_id":13924244,"tagging_user_id":32843849,"tagged_user_id":16732508,"co_author_invite_id":null,"email":"m***i@gmail.com","display_order":1,"name":"Massimo Pigliucci","title":"The Value of Public Philosophy to Philosophers"}],"downloadable_attachments":[{"id":38188439,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/38188439/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"The_Value_of_Public_Philosophy_to_Philosophers.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/38188439/download_file?st=MTczMjQ1MTI5Niw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"The_Value_of_Public_Philosophy_to_Philos.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/38188439/The_Value_of_Public_Philosophy_to_Philosophers-libre.pdf?1436895909=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DThe_Value_of_Public_Philosophy_to_Philos.pdf\u0026Expires=1732438168\u0026Signature=Gdw5H3leh0Q3M9Qg4mdfoMaSWp7tLHQdkKaLj~wI5yqhVjOvbOe9UBmTEj4OcQzQ7T7HKcrSZzQ54vgZomfHTVqtDreekoN7~QaS0layBD3If6s899XjF~9ZjUobEyQ5F4-sMfVNcHgwsxP49G8XIIgJZ4P75c6hT8Ff86mM3uGCx~MY5P9loYt652TdKtMGFRswDg993w9~h4Aez4QM6Sp-jwzBd9KuVS-mcuQetV-RpngvAEQ4V91qa3Uw0EYH3xRcOqn2Vx9~x7rp-ygjl3H-ij6IFcMK7LbLx01vtU~x~oFX~5OtTqItl-~KDQ7caBYbIlPL3dq0nyiSQoOkDw__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"slug":"The_Value_of_Public_Philosophy_to_Philosophers","translated_slug":"","page_count":18,"language":"en","content_type":"Work","owner":{"id":32843849,"first_name":"Leonard","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Finkelman","page_name":"LeonardFinkelman","domain_name":"linfield","created_at":"2015-07-06T11:36:24.583-07:00","display_name":"Leonard Finkelman","url":"https://linfield.academia.edu/LeonardFinkelman"},"attachments":[{"id":38188439,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/38188439/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"The_Value_of_Public_Philosophy_to_Philosophers.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/38188439/download_file?st=MTczMjQ1MTI5Niw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"The_Value_of_Public_Philosophy_to_Philos.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/38188439/The_Value_of_Public_Philosophy_to_Philosophers-libre.pdf?1436895909=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DThe_Value_of_Public_Philosophy_to_Philos.pdf\u0026Expires=1732438168\u0026Signature=Gdw5H3leh0Q3M9Qg4mdfoMaSWp7tLHQdkKaLj~wI5yqhVjOvbOe9UBmTEj4OcQzQ7T7HKcrSZzQ54vgZomfHTVqtDreekoN7~QaS0layBD3If6s899XjF~9ZjUobEyQ5F4-sMfVNcHgwsxP49G8XIIgJZ4P75c6hT8Ff86mM3uGCx~MY5P9loYt652TdKtMGFRswDg993w9~h4Aez4QM6Sp-jwzBd9KuVS-mcuQetV-RpngvAEQ4V91qa3Uw0EYH3xRcOqn2Vx9~x7rp-ygjl3H-ij6IFcMK7LbLx01vtU~x~oFX~5OtTqItl-~KDQ7caBYbIlPL3dq0nyiSQoOkDw__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"research_interests":[{"id":803,"name":"Philosophy","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Philosophy"},{"id":409728,"name":"Public Outreach","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Public_Outreach"}],"urls":[{"id":4962702,"url":"http://commons.pacificu.edu/eip/vol15/iss1/7/"}]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="13925510"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" href="https://www.academia.edu/13925510/Systematics_and_the_Selection_of_Species"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of Systematics and the Selection of Species" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://attachments.academia-assets.com/38160684/thumbnails/1.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/13925510/Systematics_and_the_Selection_of_Species">Systematics and the Selection of Species</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated"> The last Tasmanian wolf, a male popularly named "Benjamin," died in captivity in 1936.

That individual, named Benjamin by its keepers, was not only the last representative of the species Thylacinus cynocephalus, but also of the genus Thylacinus and the family Thylacinidae. Benjamin might have represented those taxa, but the question of whether or not it was an actual member of the taxa is one that is surprisingly difficult to answer. I argue that operational species concepts in neontological study are ambiguous about Benjamin’s classification because those concepts do not specify clear conditions for predicating extinction upon a taxon. Given that the extinction attributed to T. cynocephalus can be conceived in two ways—either functional or demographic—the same species concept may or may not classify Benjamin within that taxon. By contrast, paleontological practice is unambiguous about Benjamin’s classification: the last representative of a fossil species must be a member of the fossil species. I argue that that conceptual clarity follows from paleontology’s operational commitment to a single extinction concept, i.e., demographic. One of two inferences must follow: either paleontological phylogeny should be recognized as parataxonomic relative to neontological phylogeny or neontological species concepts should take care to specify particular extinction concepts.
