From a species to a genus: This is a redirect from a taxon's full binomial name (genus & species) to the taxon's higher level genus. Note that the practice of creating redirects from species names that could be articles is strongly discouraged.
Use {{R taxon with possibilities}} for redirects that could potentially be expanded into their own articles.
From an animal with possibilities: This is a redirect from an animal-related title that could potentially be expanded into an article. A redirect that employs this template will usually be a generally accepted species name that targets an article about a genus (or higher taxon).
For guidance on how to start a new page from a section, please see Wikipedia:Summary style. It is important that the topic is notable in accordance with the guideline, and that the article is structured in line with the manual of style; otherwise, there is a possibility that the article will be re-merged and turned back into a redirect.
Do not replace these redirected links with piped links.
