Can anyone tell me what the latest version of Mac Clade is. Is source code available for the program? We have a very large dataset and it screws up Mac Clade competly. Would be nice to be able to fix it. Mats Sundvall, Dept. of Medical Genetics, Biomedical Center, University of Uppsala, Sweden

In response to Mats Sundvall's request: MacClade is about to be released in version 3.0 as a commercial product from the publisher Sinauer Associates in Sunderland, Massachusetts. As far as I know source code is not available but Wayne Maddison may be helpful (he is the author along with his brother David). His e-mail addresses are: HETERO@UCBCMSA.bitnet or: HETERO@amber.berkeley.edu Of course, if you have a machine on which it can run you might also be able to use my programs MOVE or DNAMOVE from PHYLIP (depending on what you want to do). That is available in source code. Ordinary requests for MacClade (for version 2.0 which sells for, I think, $6 in North America or $8 overseas, should be directed to David Maddison at Museum of Comparative Zoology, Harvard University, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02138, USA. People other than Mats please don't use the above e-mail address for routine inquiries. If version 3.0 is out they may have stopped shipping 2.0.
