R:AnimalBase at AnimalBase


This template is designed to provide a link to the AnimalBase database normally to be used under the heading External links for a species or genus name or a corresponding vernacular name. This database provides a great deal of information, mostly encyclopedic about animal taxa. It also provides taxonomic synonyms and can be a source for common names.

Parameters[edit]

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |1=mandatory: should be the taxonomy level, such as "taxonomygenus" or "taxonomyspecies".
  • |2=mandatory: should be the AnimalBase code for the page.
  • |3=optional: the taxonomic name, if different from the pagename.
  • |noi=optional: by default the linked term will be italicized. To disable italicization, set |noi=1.
