Resumo

Planktologists are urged to reorient their research priorities within the realm fo ecologically-oriented studies according to the incorporation of a phylogenetic/historical perspective to such studies, as well as to review which as the significant problems taht planktologists have to face when dealing with the multidimensional nature of plankton. In order to approach this subject, there is an explicit reference to the importance of using the principles of phylogenetic systematics in the planktological research, much like what has already been proposed for other fields of the biological sciences.
