Evolutionary biology Mid‑importance

	Evolutionary biology portal This article is part of WikiProject Evolutionary biology, an attempt at building a useful set of articles on evolutionary biology and its associated subfields such as population genetics, quantitative genetics, molecular evolution, phylogenetics, and evolutionary developmental biology. It is distinct from the WikiProject Tree of Life in that it attempts to cover patterns, process and theory rather than systematics and taxonomy.

Additional taxonomic categories

The species article included the additional taxonomic(?) categories of Subphylum, Suborder, Superfamily, Subfamily, and Subspecies. Do these belong under "Linnaean taxonomy", and thus should they be discussed here? Or do they fall under something else? --Ryguasu 08:08 Jan 11, 2003 (UTC)

"Cling to"

" . . . some botanists still cling to this rank . . ." Isn't that a bit strong? How about, ". . . some botanists still prefer this rank . . ." ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.0.58.18 (talk) 07:32, 5 February 2006‎ (UTC)[reply]

External links modified

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on Linnaean taxonomy. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20061211145046/http://www.finitesite.com/dandelion/Linnaeus.HTML to http://www.finitesite.com/dandelion/Linnaeus.HTML

When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.

clarification needed about alternatives

One can read "linked together to construct a phylogeny. This is largely what is meant by the term 'Linnaean taxonomy'" (under section "Alternatives"). I consider that the word "This" (in "phylogeny. This is largely") needs a clarification. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.238.112.155 (talk) 12:41, 5 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Potentially obsolote?

with cladistics this could be considered outdated 2800:2145:B400:56A:7820:394C:C043:83D5 (talk) 19:35, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Absolutely not. Trivially, even under the PhyloCode, species are named using Linnaean binomials, but more significantly, all the major taxonomic databases use multiple Linnaean ranks – just follow the links in the taxonbars in any article about an extant taxon.
