Category:Taxonomy templates for species

The pages listed in this category are templates. This page is part of Wikipedia's administration and not part of the encyclopedia. Further template category notes This category contains pages in the template namespace. It should not be used to categorize articles or pages in other namespaces. To add a template to this category: If the template has a separate documentation page (usually called "Template:template name/doc"), add  [[Category:Taxonomy templates for species]] to the <includeonly> section at the bottom of that page. Otherwise, add  <noinclude>[[Category:Taxonomy templates for species]]</noinclude> to the end of the template code, making sure it starts on the same line as the code's last character.

This category tracks all taxonomy templates used in the automated taxobox system that are for species, i.e. have |rank=species.

Such templates are only needed when the species name is not displayed in a taxobox as a straightforward binomial, in particular when the generic name is displayed other than as a single word. In all other cases, the template is redundant, since the taxonomic hierarchy is picked up from the genus name or from the |parent= parameter in the taxobox.

Templates are put in this category by {{Don't edit this line}}.
