Template:Infraspeciesbox/doc

Documentation for the automated taxobox system

Template:Infraspeciesbox displays an automatic taxobox for a rank lower than species (an infraspecific rank) for taxa governed by the ICN  (the botanical code). For taxa governed by the ICZN  (the zoological code), see Template:Subspeciesbox.

At present it can only handle the ranks subspecies and variety (varietas) or the combination of the two.

Usage

The parameters are generally the same as Template:Subspeciesbox, which handles subspecies whose names are governed by the Zoological Code.

Subspecies only

Suppose that a species called Yucca grandiflora has a subspecies Y. g. subsp. laxifolia. Then:

{{Infraspeciesbox
| genus = Yucca
| species = grandiflora
| subspecies = laxifolia
| authority = A.Anon
}}

generates →

Yucca grandiflora subsp. laxifolia
Scientific classification
Unrecognized taxon (fix):	Yucca
Subgenus:	Template:Taxonomy/Yucca
Species:	Template:Taxonomy/YuccaY. grandiflora
Subspecies:	Template:Taxonomy/YuccaY. g. subsp. laxifolia
Trinomial name
Yucca grandiflora subsp. laxifolia A.Anon

Variety only

Suppose that the species Yucca grandiflora has a variety Y. g. var. tenuifolia, with no intervening subspecies. Then:

{{Infraspeciesbox
| genus = Yucca
| species = grandiflora
| varietas = tenuifolia
| authority = B.Anon
}}

generates →

(The parameter "variety" can be used in place of "varietas".)

Yucca grandiflora var. tenuifolia
Scientific classification
Unrecognized taxon (fix):	Yucca
Subgenus:	Template:Taxonomy/Yucca
Species:	Template:Taxonomy/YuccaY. grandiflora
Variety:	Template:Taxonomy/YuccaY. g. var. tenuifolia
Trinomial name
Yucca grandiflora var. tenuifolia B.Anon

Subspecies and variety

Finally suppose that Y. g. var. tenuifolia is actually within Y. g. subsp. laxifolia. Then:

{{Infraspeciesbox
|genus = Yucca
|species = grandiflora
|subspecies = laxifolia
|varietas = tenuifolia
|authority = B.Anon
}}

generates →

Note that the ICN does not allow Y. g. subsp. laxifolia var. tenuifolia as a name.

Yucca grandiflora var. tenuifolia
Scientific classification
Unrecognized taxon (fix):	Yucca
Subgenus:	Template:Taxonomy/Yucca
Species:	Template:Taxonomy/YuccaY. grandiflora
Subspecies:	Template:Taxonomy/YuccaY. g. subsp. laxifolia
Variety:	Template:Taxonomy/YuccaY. g. var. tenuifolia
Trinomial name
Yucca grandiflora var. tenuifolia B.Anon

Performance considerations

As of November 2017, this template had not been tested with many of the other possible parameters.
