9. Glossary Taxon One or more organisms that belong to the same taxonomic unit. taxonomy The field of science that classifies life. Topotype http://www.sel.barc.usda.gov/scalenet/glossary.htm

Glossary Terms Pertaining to Zoological Nomenclature Allotype A specimen designated from the type series that is the opposite sex of the holotype. Available name A name that is correctly proposed according to the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature. An available name is not necessarily the valid name. Category Any rank within the classification hierarchy, e.g., family, subfamily, subspecies. Change of rank When a name is moved from one level of the classification system to another, e.g., when De Lotto (1955) moved Ceroplastes destructor brevicauda from the subspecies to the species rank C. brevicauda this was a change of rank. Classification A system of nested hierarchical categories used to efficiently store information about the diversity of life. Classify To place a taxon in a classification system. Cotypes A term no longer recognized in the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature; synonymous with syntypes. Emendation An intentional change to a previously proposed name, e.g., Lindinger proposed the emendation Hemiberlesea for the armored scale Hemiberlesia indicating that it was originally improperly formed.

Supernova Taxonomy First published 1996 October 17; last updated 2002 February 12 by M. Montes A Supernovae Taxonomy Flow Chart Description of the Flow Chart The observational classes are in sharp-cornered boxes. Theoretical interpretations (i.e. possible progenitors ) are listed in the boxes with rounded corners. Examples are listed underneath the observational classes. It should be noted that SN 1987A had a fairly odd behavior (for fairly well understood reasons) and is certainly not a prototypical SN IIP. It was rather sub-luminous, and while it may represent a certain population of sub-luminous SN II, we will probably not detect too many members of this population precisely because they are sub-luminous. SN 1987A may be better classified as an SN IIpec. A theoretical interpretation of observations has driven the organization of this plot. At the left side, there is little or no hydrogen present in the ejecta; as one moves right, there is increasing evidence for hydrogen. SN IIP have a plateau in their post-maximum light curve, while SN IIL do not (Barbon et al 1979). SN IIL and IIP may Current Classification Scheme The current classification scheme has these broad divisions: SN I show no hydrogen lines in their early spectra; SN II do show hydrogen in their early spectra. Subclasses determined by spectral evidence are denoted by lower-case letters, Ia, Ib, Ic, IIb (Woosley et al. 1987; Filippenko 1988), and IIn (Schlegel 1990) . Subclasses determined by certain properties of the (usually)

Following boom after boom of software for creating information - from Word Processing to Web Publishing - we today have far more resources focused on the generation of content than on the ability to effectively utilize it. Lack of information is no longer the problem - but lack of time to correlate, categorize, analyze and act on the information is a business critical issue.

Bloom's Taxonomy Benjamin Bloom created this taxonomy for categorizing level of abstraction of questions that commonly occur in educational settings. The taxonomy provides a useful structure in which to categorize test questions, since professors will characteristically ask questions within particular levels, and if you can determine the levels of questions that will appear on your exams, you will be able to study using appropriate strategies. Competence Skills Demonstrated Knowledge observation and recall of information knowledge of dates, events, places knowledge of major ideas mastery of subject matter Question Cues: list, define, tell, describe, identify, show, label, collect, examine, tabulate, quote, name, who, when, where, etc. Comprehension understanding information grasp meaning translate knowledge into new context interpret facts, compare, contrast order, group, infer causes predict consequences Question Cues: summarize, describe, interpret, contrast, predict, associate, distinguish, estimate, differentiate, discuss, extend Application use information use methods, concepts, theories in new situations

Biosphere Monthly Feature: The Plant Kingdom This site is dedicated to the beauty and science of nature and to the joys nature brings to those who explore it. The joy of seeing "familiar faces" everywhere; the invigoration a nature walk brings to both body and soul; the beauty and diversity of our Earthly co-habitants; and the pleasure of eating something found along the way. The material here is organized according to the biological principles of Taxonomy, or classification: We live on a planet called Earth. Biologists call the Earth and its atmosphere the Biosphere . The Biosphere is composed of organic and inorganic matter. Organic matter (stuff containing carbon) is again divided into living and non-living objects. All living beings are currently divided into five Kingdoms. Four of these Kingdoms are depicted above: Plantae , the plant kingdom, studied in the field of Botany Fungi , the kingdom of fungus and molds, studied as Mycology Animalia , the animal kingdom, the domain of Zoology ; and Protoctista , a catch-all for all other "higher-order" organisms from single-celled microbes to large seaweeds (algae).

It has been adopted by the International Taxonomic Databases Working Group (TDWG) as a standard for data exchange.

Current taxonomy of the rhizobia [Updated 6th February 2004] The species listed here are all of the most current validly published names for the rhizobia. The rhizobia are nitrogen fixing bacteria that form root nodules on legume plants. Most of these bacterial species are in the Rhizobiacae family in the alpha-proteobacteria. Most rhizobia are in either the Rhizobium Mesorhizobium Sinorhizobium or Bradyrhizobium genera. However recent research has shown that there are other rhizobial species outside these genera. In addition there are other non-rhizobia species present in the Rhizobium genus, such as Rhizobium radiobacter , formally known as Agrobacterium tumefaciens . however these are not listed here as the ' Agrobacterium ' do not form nitrogen fixing symbiotic root nodules, and are therefore not rhizobia.

The "Nuts and Bolts" of Taxonomy and Classification Compiled by R. Hays Cummins, Interdisciplinary Studies Miami University (Sources include Mayr, E. 1969. Principles of Systematic Zoology. McGraw-Hill: New York.) Welcome! It is 1:17:29 AM on Thursday, May 27, 2004. This page has served visitors. Last Update: Monday, October 27, 2003. Introduction We use this lab in Patterns and Processes , and Tropical Marine Ecology . This exercise illustrates the creativity involved in taxonomy and the roles form and function, ancestral traits and derived characters play in generating classification schemes. It can also serve as an introduction to topics in evolution and paleontology. We have noticed that in the field, after completing this exercise, students begin to recognize distinctions and similarities in fauna which they may have not noticed before. Terms for Discussion Phylogeny Divergence Convergence Linnaeus Heirarchy Evolutionary Tree Homologous Structure Morphology Function Background It has become apparent to scientists that the biosphere consists of, at a minimum, 1.5 million described species.
