contents A tanglegram consists of two rooted binary trees with the same number of leaves and a perfect matching between the leaves of the trees. Given a size-$n$ tanglegram, i.e., a tanglegram for two trees with $n$ leaves, a multiset of induced size-$(n-1)$ tanglegrams is obtained by deleting a pair of matched leaves in every possible way. Here, we analyze whether a size-$n$ tanglegram is uniquely encoded by this multiset of size-$(n-1)$ tanglegrams. We answer this question affirmatively in the case that at least one of the two trees of the tanglegram is a caterpillar tree.
