Ταξινομία του Λινναίου: Διαφορά μεταξύ των αναθεωρήσεων

*[[Τάξη (βιολογία)|Τάξη]]

*[[Οικογένεια (βιολογία)|Οικογένεια]]

**[[Υποείδος]]

 

Σαν παράδειγμα θα δούμε την ταξινόμηση του σύγχρονου ανθρώπου με βάση την ταξινομία του Λινναίου:

*'''Βασίλειο:''' [[Ζώα]] (όλα τα ζώα που είναι [[ετερότροφοι οργανισμοί|ετερότροφα]])

*'''Υποφύλο:''' [[Σπονδυλωτά]] (όλα τα σπονδυλωτά, i.e., with a spinal column)

*'''Κλάση:''' [[Θηλαστικά]] (όλα τα σπονδυλωτά, τα θηλυκά των οποίων θηλάζουν τα νεογνά τους)

*'''Γένος:''' ''[[Homo (genus)|Homo]]'' (upright primates; 'man')

*'''Είδος:''' ''Homo [[sapiens]]'' (humanity; 'wise man')

Originally, Linnaeus established three kingdoms in his scheme, namely [[Plant]]ae, [[Animal]]ia and an additional group for [[minerals]], which has since been abandoned. Since then, various life forms have been moved into three new kingdoms: [[Monera]], for [[Prokaryote|prokaryotes]] (i.e., bacteria); [[Protist]]a, for protozoans and most algae; and [[fungus|Fungi]]. This five kingdom scheme is still far from the [[phylogeny|phylogenetic]] ideal and has largely been supplanted in modern taxonomic work by a division into three domains: [[Bacterium|Bacteria]] and [[Archaea]], which contain the prokaryotes, and [[Eukaryote|Eukaryota]], comprising the remaining forms. This change was precipitated by the discovery of the Archaea.

* "Taxonomy (the science of classification) is often undervalued as a glorified form of filing—with each species in its prescribed place in an album; but taxonomy is a fundamental and dynamic science, dedicated to exploring the causes of relationships and similarities among organisms. Classifications are theories about the basis of natural order, not dull catalogues compiled only to avoid chaos." [[Stephen Jay Gould]] (1990, p.98)
