Abstract:
Absolute (Linnaean) ranks are essential to rank-based nomenclature (RN), which has been used by the vast majority of systematists for the last 150 years. They are widely recognized as being subjective among taxonomists, but not necessarily in other fields. For this reason, phylogenetic nomenclature (PN) and other alternative nomenclatural systems have been developed. However, reluctance to accept alternative nomenclatural systems and continued use of higher taxa of a given Linnaean category in comparative analyses presumably reflect a lack of appreciation of the deleterious effects of the subj

Abstract. A sound catchment classification scheme is a fundamental step towards improved catchment hydrology science and prediction in ungauged basins. Two categories of catchment classification methods are presented in the paper. The first one is based directly on physiographic properties and climatic conditions over a catchment and regarded as a Linnaean type or natural classification scheme. The second one is based on numerical clustering and regionalization methods and considered as a statistical or arbitrary classification scheme.

Abstract:
This article examines how the genus category was perceived and conceived in zoology (with occasional references to botany), in reference to species on the one hand and to higher categories on the other hand. In systematic zoology and botany, animals and plants are classified and named according to their species, genera, and higher categories (family, order, etc.). Linguistic relationships between the words ‘genus’ and ‘general, generality’ might have played a role in some intuitive meaning of the genus. This article traces the evolution of the concept of genus as used in systematic zoology fro

Abstract:
Abstract Latin offers a wide range of terminology types, from the most unambiguous, which are true nomenclatures (for institutions), to the most vague or approximate (for natural categories), with intermediate zones where different types cohabit in the same lexicon (as in Christian vocabulary). The degree of imprecision of the terminologies is related to the nature of the extralinguistic domain denoted and to its degree of remoteness from human beings, depending whether it is man-made or belongs to nature. The various types of terminologies documented in Latin are not specific to Latin; they a

Abstract What is “racial realism”? I distinguish a taxon issue from a category issue. I take both issues to be about whether kinds are explanatory. Looking to biology, I argue that Racial Taxon Realism is clearly true. There are infraspecific kinds, differing in minor ways, that biologists often call “races”. These kinds are biologically explanatory in virtue of having part intrinsic and part historical essences This doctrine extends to humans. Turning to Racial Category Realism, I reject the objection that the alleged biological races are not “worthy of the name” ‘race’. The more serious obje

Abstract There is currently a vigorous debate on the phylogeny of arthropods. Many old ideas are being overturned following molecular analysis of relationships between extant arthropod groups and discovery of new fossils. In recent years, there has been a welcome trend towards taking a much broader cladistic view of evolution, rather than forcing different arthropod groups into strict Linnaean categories (Queiroz and Gauthier 1994). In this chapter, the origins of Collembola and their relationship to other arthropods are discussed (Section 3.2). The systematics of Collembola themselves is exam

This chapter discusses the interpretations of the meanings of the concepts of “wolf,” “dog,” and “wolf-dog” from an evolutionary perspective. Much literature on dogs shows similar simplistic, often mistaken, assumptions concerning the processes by which dogs evolved from wolves. Most people expect that there is some clear line that exists between the taxonomic categories “wolf” and “dog,” a problem that began when Linnaeus classified domestic dogs and gray wolves as distinct species in the eighteenth century.

Abstract By the middle of the nineteenth century systematics no longer constituted the cutting edge of natural history. As William Jardine, the editor of the Naturalist’s Library, an influential series of zoology guides, put it, ‘the age of superstitious reverence for categories ... has long passed away’.’ Black-boxed and metonymized in the person of Linnaeus, classification had, in fact, come to occupy a somewhat unenviable position in the view of the two major audiences for zoology and botany.

Insects represent the most species-rich group of living beings.

Entomophagy is the term used to describe the use of insects in the human diet. This resource is fully realized because insect farming requires few resources, generates few impacts, and has a low cost/benefit ratio, thus contributing to food security.

The basic structures of a bacterial and a eukaryotic cell are shown in Fig. 8.1. The differences whose origins call for an explanation are as follows: • The bacterial cell has a rigid outer cell wall, usually made of the peptidoglycan, murein. In eukaryotes, the rigid cell wall is not universal, and cell shape is maintained primarily by an internal cytoskeleton of filaments and microtubules. • Eukaryotic cells have a complex system of internal membranes, including the nuclear envelope, endoplasmic reticulum and lysosomes. • Bacteria have a single circular chromosome, attached to the rigid oute
