Taxonomy templates

Taxobox templates

Which should be used?
Changing the taxa displayed
Convert a taxobox to an automated taxobox
Glossary of automated taxobox parameters
Automatic taxobox – mainly for genera and higher taxa
Speciesbox – for a species
Subspeciesbox – for an animal subspecies
Infraspeciesbox – for a plant subspecies or variety
Hybridbox – for an animal hybrid within a genus
Ichnobox – for a trace fossil
Oobox – for a fossil egg
Virusbox – for viruses and non-cellular life
Paraphyletic group – for concepts that do not correspond to a monophyletic clade
Population taxobox - for notable populations of subspecies of animals

This template is only suitable for taxa whose names are regulated by the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature. For ranks below species whose names are regulated by the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants see Template:Infraspeciesbox.

Usage

Usage is almost the same as Template:Automatic taxobox, except that you need to specify:

|genus=name of the genus; e.g. Panthera
|subgenus=link to subgenus if any
|species=specific name; e.g. leo
|species_link= (optional link to page about species; defaults to genus species)
|subspecies=subspecific name; e.g. melanochaita

Unlike {{Speciesbox}}, |taxon= cannot be used; the three parts of the trinomial must be given separately.

If the subspecies is extinct, but the species and genus are not, then you need to specify:

|extinct=yes or year (in order to display the year of extinction, year is needed if |status= is set, whether or not the genus is extinct)

If the species (and hence the subspecies) is extinct, but the genus is not, then you need to specify:

|species_extinct=yes

TemplateData for Subspeciesbox

An infobox for subspecies of animals (organisms governed by the ICZN) where {{tl|Automatic taxobox}} or {{tl|Speciesbox}} is used for parent taxa

Template parameters[Edit template data]
This template prefers block formatting of parameters.
Parameter		Description	Type	Status
name	`name`	Title of the taxobox; may be the English vernacular name of the subspecies	String	optional
image	`image`	An image of a member of the subspecies, given without the File: or Image: prefix and without double brackets	File	suggested
image_upright	`image_upright`	Used to adjust the displayed size of an image with an extreme aspect ratio. Values under 1.0 decrease the size of an image (most useful for very tall, narrow images) Values over 1.0 increase the size of an image (possibly useful for short, wide images) Example 0.8	Number	optional
image_alt	`image_alt`	Text describing what is depicted in the image	String	optional
image_caption	`image_caption`	A caption for the image, if any is necessary. Do not simply repeat the name of the taxon	String	optional
image2	`image2`	An second image of a member of the subspecies, given without the File: or Image: prefix and without double brackets. It is desirable to display images of both sexes of sexually dimorphic subspecies.	File	optional
image2_caption	`image2_caption`	A caption for the second image, if any is necessary. Do not simply repeat the name of the taxon	String	optional
image2_upright	`image2_upright`	Used to adjust the displayed size of an image with an extreme aspect ratio. Values under 1.0 decrease the size of an image (most useful for very tall, narrow images) Values over 1.0 increase the size of an image (possibly useful for short, wide images) Example 0.8	Number	optional
status	`status`	The conservation status of the taxon as assigned by a particular authority Example LC	String	optional
status_system	`status_system`	The authority assigning a particular conservation status Example IUCN3.1	String	optional
status_ref	`status_ref`	A citation that supports the displayed status and status_system parameters	String	optional
extinct	`extinct`	The date a subspecies was declared extinct (specifying \|status=EX is required in order for the date to display). Alternatively, if a non-numeric value is given, displays † to indicate that a subspecies is extinct Example 1066	String	optional
species_extinct	`species_extinct`	Displays † to indicate that the parent species is extinct Example yes	Boolean	optional
genus	`genus`	Scientific name of the genus with no formatting; used in conjunction with \|species and \|subspecies. Example Homo	String	required
subgenus	`subgenus`	The subgenus containing a particular species. Any formatting or link mark-up must be manually added.	String	optional
species_link	`species_link`	The title of the article that is the parent species of the subspecies. Used to bypass a redirect when the species has a vernacular name title. Required when the genus is disambiguated. Should not be specified in other circumstances	Page name	optional
species	`species`	Scientific name (species epithet) of the species with no formatting; used in conjunction with \|genus and \|subspecies. Example sapiens	String	required
subspecies	`subspecies`	Scientific name (subspecies epithet) of the subspecies with no formatting; used in conjunction with \|genus and \|species. Example sapiens	String	required
authority	`authority`	The describing authority for the subspecies in the appropriate format; presence or absence of parentheses is meaningful Example Wilkes, 1810	String	suggested
range_map	`range_map`	The name of the image file, if any, showing the subspecies' geographic habitat	File	optional
range_map_upright	`range_map_upright`	Used to adjust the displayed size of a range map. May be useful when the range map has an extreme aspect ratio (use values <1 for tall/narrow range maps, and >1 for short/wide range maps). May also be necessary if an image_upright parameter is specified Example 0.8	Number	optional
range_map_caption	`range_map_caption`	A caption for the range map, if any is necessary	String	optional
synonyms	`synonyms`	Taxonomic synonyms. These should be displayed in a collapsed list format if there are many of them.	String	optional
synonyms_ref	`synonyms_ref`	A reference supporting the synonymy shown in the list	String	optional
