0 relating to a system for naming and organizing things, especially plants and animals, into groups that have similar qualities:
It is a collaborative project that engages biologists around the world to write descriptions of species groups organized along evolutionary and taxonomic lines.
Samples of the corals and sponges were collected for taxonomic identification and DNA analysis.
The species found are all neatly categorized by taxonomic group.
taxonomic collections in museums and universities
The analysis presented here demonstrates the lack of knowledge concerning the ultrastructure of the excretory system of cercariae belonging to different taxonomic groups.
Thus, as a fish species extends its depth range, it also acquires a broader taxonomic range of endoparasites.
The measures of taxonomic distinctness used here provide a summary of this structure, and they suggest possible evolutionary scenarios.
Rarity was also evenly distributed among taxonomic units.
