Templates

Wikipedia:Automated taxobox system

Template:Automatic_taxobox -- is used for ranks above species.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Taxonomy/Bylgides -- example Automatic taxobox template (Bylgides)

Template:Speciesbox -- template to display a taxobox for a species whose parent's taxonomy is stored in taxonomy templates. Species don't normally need to be connected to their parent genus via their own taxonomy templates because the genus name is part of the name of the species, so the system doesn't normally need to be told the parent of a species. Hence there aren't usually any templates with names of the form "Template:Taxonomy/genus species" and species and lower ranks need to be handled a little differently from higher ranked taxa.
