Template:Species list
 | This template uses Lua: |
Usage[change source]
This template is one of a number intended for use in taxoboxes under the |subdivision= or |synonyms= parameters, to produce a list of taxa in a consistent format. The table below shows the behaviour of the available templates.
| Taxon name | Template | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Italicized | Linked | Bold | |
| no | no | no | {{Taxon list}} |
| no | yes | no | {{Linked taxon list}} |
| yes | no | no | {{Species list}}, alias {{Genus list}} |
| yes | yes | no | {{Linked species list}}, alias {{Linked genus list}} |
| yes | no | yes | {{Bold species list}}, alias {{Bold genus list}} |
Use like this:
{{Species list
| Spexia speciosa | Authority, 2003
| †Spexia additiona | Others et al., 2002
| Spexia typa | Describer, 1888 (type)
| Spexia dubia |
| Specia dubia ''subsp.'' maxima |
}}
Both the taxon name and authority will be automatically formatted to produce:
- Spexia speciosa Authority, 2003
- †Spexia additiona Others et al., 2002
- Spexia typa Describer, 1888 (type)
- Spexia dubia
- Specia dubia subsp. maxima
Note that if the authority is not known, the "|" must still be present after the taxon name.
If a "connecting term" is present in a botanical name, such as "subsp.", "var." or "f.", then this should not be italicized. The template should automatically de-italicize connecting terms. If this fails, you can put '' either side of the connecting term to de-italicize it.
Mark incomplete lists using |incomplete=yes, which will add "(incomplete)" to the end of the list.
Variations[change source]
To automatically link the content of every taxon name, use {{Linked species list}}. To bold-face the species (e.g. if they will never have their own pages, when listed in a genus article) use {{Bold species list}}.
For example:
{{Linked species list / {{Linked genus list
| Spexia speciosa | Authority, 2003
| †Spexia additiona | Others et al., 2002
| Spexia typa | Describer, 1888 (type)
| Spexia dubia {{!}} S. dubia | <!--creates a piped link-->
| ''[[Puma (genus) {{!}} Puma ]]'' | Jardine, 1834 <!--handles a disambiguated genus name-->
}}
produces
- Spexia speciosa Authority, 2003
- †Spexia additiona Others et al., 2002
- Spexia typa Describer, 1888 (type)
- S. dubia
- Puma Jardine, 1834
Each of the three "species list" templates has a "genus list" alias.
Abbreviating
Adding |abbreviated=yes will cause the displayed name to be abbreviated.
- Spexia speciosa Authority, 2003
- †Spexia additiona Others et al., 2002
- Spexia speciosa subsp. speciosa
- Spexia sect. Additiona
Extinct taxa[change source]
The name of an extinct taxon can be preceded by one of the following markers: † † {{extinct}}. Any of them will appear as † in the output. The † will not be italicized and will not be included in a wikilink.
See also[change source]
- {{Genus list}}, {{Linked genus list}} and {{Bold genus list}} are aliases for the equivalent "Species list" templates.
- {{Taxon list}} – creates a list for taxon names which should not be italicized, i.e. taxa at ranks higher than genus
- {{Linked taxon list}} – as {{Taxon list}} but the taxon names are wikilinked
