Stop the abuse of time! Strict temporal banding is not the future of rank-based classifications in fungi (including lichens) and other organisms
R Lücking - Critical Reviews in Plant Sciences, 2019 - Taylor & Francis
Classification is the most important approach to cataloging biological diversity. It serves as a
principal means of communication between scientific disciplines, as well as between …

Towards an integrated phylogenetic classification of the Tremellomycetes
Families and genera assigned to Tremellomycetes have been mainly circumscribed by
morphology and for the yeasts also by biochemical and physiological characteristics. This …

Ecology and evolution of cycad‐feeding Lepidoptera
MRL Whitaker, S Salzman - Ecology letters, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
Cycads are an ancient group of tropical gymnosperms that are toxic to most animals–

Genomes of skipper butterflies reveal extensive convergence of wing patterns
For centuries, biologists have used phenotypes to infer evolution. For decades, a handful of
gene markers have given us a glimpse of the genotype to combine with phenotypic traits …

DNA barcodes combined with multilocus data of representative taxa can generate reliable higher-level phylogenies
Taxa are frequently labeled incertae sedis when their placement is debated at ranks above
the species level, such as their subgeneric, generic, or subtribal placement. This is a …

Towards standardizing taxonomic ranks using divergence times – a case study for reconstruction of the Agaricus taxonomic system
RL Zhao, JL Zhou, J Chen, S Margaritescu… - Fungal diversity, 2016 - Springer
The recognition of taxonomic ranks in the Linnean classification system is largely arbitrary.
