Taxonomy templates

Taxobox templates

Template:Infraspeciesbox displays an automatic taxobox for a rank lower than species (an infraspecific rank) for taxa governed by the ICN  (the botanical code). For taxa governed by the ICZN  (the zoological code), see Template:Subspeciesbox.

At present it can only handle the ranks subspecies and variety (varietas) or the combination of the two.

Usage

The parameters are generally the same as Template:Subspeciesbox, which handles subspecies whose names are governed by the Zoological Code.

Subspecies only

Suppose that a species called Yucca grandiflora has a subspecies Y. g. subsp. laxifolia. Then:

{{Infraspeciesbox
| genus = Yucca
| species = grandiflora
| subspecies = laxifolia
| authority = A.Anon
}}
generates →
Template:Taxobox/core

Variety only

Suppose that the species Yucca grandiflora has a variety Y. g. var. tenuifolia, with no intervening subspecies. Then:

{{Infraspeciesbox
| genus = Yucca
| species = grandiflora
| varietas = tenuifolia
| authority = B.Anon
}}

generates →

(The parameter "variety" can be used in place of "varietas".)
Template:Taxobox/core

Subspecies and variety

Finally suppose that Y. g. var. tenuifolia is actually within Y. g. subsp. laxifolia. Then:

{{Infraspeciesbox
|genus = Yucca
|species = grandiflora
|subspecies = laxifolia
|varietas = tenuifolia
|authority = B.Anon
}}

generates →

Note that the ICN does not allow Y. g. subsp. laxifolia var. tenuifolia as a name.
Template:Taxobox/core


Performance considerations

As of November 2017, this template had not been tested with many of the other possible parameters.
