[Taxacom] "what is a biological classsification?"

[Ken Kinman]

Dear All,
         A fairly good article for general consumption.  However, although 1758 is the start for zoological names, it is NOT (as I recall) the start for botanical names (botanical names back to 1753 do count).    
              ---------------Ken
