The society is named after Willi Hennig, a German systematic entomologist who developed the modern methods and philosophical approach to systematics in the 1940s and 1950s.[1] The society is also involved in reconstructing the tree of life. The current president, Ward Wheeler of the American Museum of National History, was elected in 2016, succeeding Dr. Jyrki Muona. FoundingThe Willi Hennig Society was founded on a philosophical division among systematic biologists in the late 1970s. A debate created the rift between pheneticists who advocated for statistical or numerical methods that grouped taxa by overall similarity in taxonomy and systematic biologists who adopted a strict cladistic approach to taxonomy, recognizing groups by shared, derived characters alone. The last public clash occurred at the 13th Annual Numerical Taxonomy Conference at the Museum of Comparative Zoology (MCZ), Harvard University in October 1979. Twelve months later, the Willi Hennig Society was founded through invitation by Professor Edward O. Wiley and founding president James S. Farris. Seventy eight systematists from Great Britain, Sweden, Canada, and the United States gathered at the University of Kansas, to inaugurate the Willi Hennig Society. Membership doubled to over 150 by the second meeting.[2][3][4][5][6] BackgroundThe Willi Hennig Society is primarily involved in projects aimed at the study and classification of biodiversity using the original methods and philosophy outlined by Willi Hennig in his book "Phylogenetic Systematics".[7] In 1994, the society teamed up with the Society of Systematic Biologists and the American Society of Plant Taxonomists to organize the Systematics Agenda 2000.[8][9] The Systematics Agenda 2000 is ongoing and has set out to deliver on the following mission statements:
