• Natural History Museum, LondonRelated: Taxonomic systems organize much of the museum's biological material.

• Joseph LeidyRelated: Leidy’s fossil descriptions depended on distinguishing and classifying species from anatomical evidence.

• MonophylyRelated: Taxonomic groups are often evaluated by whether they correspond to clades.

• PercomorphaRelated: Ongoing revisions affect the names and ranks assigned to percomorph groups.

• Sahelanthropus tchadensisRelated: Debate over whether Sahelanthropus is a hominin concerns both its classification and evolutionary relationships.

• John GouldRelated: Gould’s publications introduced and organized many bird species through taxonomic descriptions.

• AcanthomorphaRelated: Revised phylogenies repeatedly alter the ranks and boundaries assigned to acanthomorph groups.

• Australian MuseumRelated: Taxonomic work gives structure to the museum’s extensive biological specimens.

• Homo rudolfensisRelated: Debate over its anatomy becomes debate over whether it merits a species name.

• Insect collectingRelated: Taxonomic standards make collected insects comparable across collections and publications.

• AiluridaeRelated: The placement of fragmentary fossil species can affect which genera count as ailurids.

• MicropaleontologyRelated: Consistent classification is needed to compare fossil occurrences across studies.

• PythonidaeRelated: Pythonidae's rank and boundaries are established through zoological classification.

• AplacophoraRelated: Microscopic spicules and internal anatomy are central to identifying and classifying aplacophoran species.

• Bernard HeuvelmansRelated: Heuvelmans used classification and anatomical comparison to argue that reported animals might represent distinct species.

• Family (biology)Related: Taxonomy uses family as a rank for organizing biological diversity.

• Peter Simon PallasRelated: Pallas used classification to organize the species he encountered and examined.

• CephalaspisRelated: Changing classifications of fossil jawless fishes affect which species remain in Cephalaspis.

• DryopithecusRelated: Fossils from different places and periods have sometimes been assigned to Dryopithecus.

• NoctuidaeRelated: Noctuidae’s boundaries and subfamilies are products of taxonomic classification.

• NothosaurusRelated: Taxonomic revisions shape which species are assigned to Nothosaurus.

• OphthalmosaurusRelated: Changing fossil interpretations have affected which specimens belong in the genus.

• PalpigradiRelated: Taxonomic work is central to recognizing palpigrade species and documenting their distributions.

• PauropodaRelated: Pauropod species are distinguished through taxonomic study of small anatomical features.

• MotacillidaeRelated: Motacillidae's boundaries and genus assignments are products of biological taxonomy.

• NymphalidaeRelated: Nymphalidae's subfamilies and tribes reflect ongoing choices about butterfly relationships.

• Philip Henry GosseRelated: Gosse described and classified marine species as part of his natural-history work.

• SequoioideaeRelated: Its ranks distinguish Sequoioideae from its constituent genera and species.

• WedgefishRelated: Clear species identification is essential for recording wedgefish catches and assessing their status.

• AcanthosomaRelated: The genus is a taxonomic unit defined by classification and diagnostic traits.

• AnomalopidaeRelated: Taxonomic placement distinguishes Anomalopidae from other families of luminous fishes.
