populational viewpoint of classifying species from fossils

The idea that if two fossils have major similarities they should be categorized as being members of the same species. From this perspective, minor anatomical differences within the same population are expected since the members of living species have individual variation. People who advocate this viewpoint are also referred to in the biological sciences and "lumpers". See typological viewpoint.
