Taxonomic nomenclature and sources of information
Taxonomic nomenclature
The notes below mention several of the commonly recognized taxonomic levels usedin classifying organisms. The broadest is kingdom, followed (in order of increasingspecificity) by phylum or division, class, order, family, genus, species.
In the schedules for specific kinds of organisms, scientific terms are preferred in head-ings for taxonomic numbers below the kingdom level. If there is an alternative scientificname still in current use, it is given in the heading in parentheses following the preferredterm. If there are two or more alternative scientific names in current use, the preferredterm is given in the heading, and the alternative names are given in a variant-name note.For example, Mycetozoa, Myxomycetes, Myxomycophyta, Myxomycota are given asvariant names for Myxomycotina (slime molds) at 579.52. Most obsolete names havebeen dropped. If a common name is well established in the literature but does not havea clear-cut corresponding scientific term (or terms), the common name may be usedalone, e.g., 598.412–.415 Ducks.
A scientific name given in a class-here note is usually that of a subordinate taxon thatcomprises all or most of the members of the group in the heading. For example, under583.86 Vitales, the class here note gives Vitaceae (grape family), the only family in theorder.
Common names are linked to scientific names by parentheses when they are generallyunderstood to be exact equivalents. When two common names are linked to a scientif-ic name, a comma between them means that they are alternative common names, e.g.,“(doves, pigeons)“ after Columbidae in the class-here note at 598.65. An ”and“ meansthat the two groups with common names together comprise the scientific group, e.g.,”(poplars and aspens)“ after Populus in the including note at 583.83. Common namesthat simply refer to well-known members of a scientific class, however, are listed al-phabetically in an including note.
With plants (and occasionally with animals), the familiar name for families consists ofthe name of a typical member or members plus the word “family,” e.g., Ranunculaceae(buttercup family) at 583.34. The typical member may be a single species or a largegenus with hundreds of species, but seldom approximates the whole of the family. Clas-sifiers must not assume that if the family approximates the whole of an order, the typicalmembers do also.
An illustration of two terminology problems appears at 583.23 Laurales. The main fam-ily of this order is Lauraceae, the laurel family, which encompasses over 85 percent ofthe species of the order. The family is therefore given in a class here note, signifyingthat subdivisions can be added to the number for works on the family because it approx-imates the whole of the order.
Only a few species of the laurel family, however, are individually known as laurels,while several plants of other orders are also called laurels. Since it is useful to knowwhere to class comprehensive works on laurels, the including note reads, in part: “In-cluding ... comprehensive works on laurels.” Being listed in an including note meansthat laurels (even in its broadest sense encompassing all plants called laurels) do notapproximate the whole of the 2800 species in the order Laurales.
579 Manual on Use of Dewey Decimal Classification

Some large classes of organisms have two including notes, for classifier convenience.The first including note lists the scientific names of families or higher taxa and theircorresponding common names, the second the common names that do not correspondwith the given scientific names. Genera are listed with the common names because somany have become common names.
Sources of taxonomic information
Taxonomic schedules usually follow the arrangement accepted in The New Encyclopae-dia Britannica, 1989. Other works that often prove helpful are Synopsis and Classifica-tion of Living Organisms edited by Sybil P. Parker (McGraw-Hill, 1982), and Webster’sThird New International Dictionary.
See also discussion at 579.24–.25; also at 579.3; also at 599.
583–584
Classification and common names of angiosperms (Flowering plants)
The subdivisions of angiosperms (flowering plants) in 583–584 are defined by referenceto the article “An update of the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group classification for theorders and families of flowering plants: APG III” in Botanical Journal of the LinneanSociety 161 (2009): 105–121, but the basic outline from early editions of the DeweyDecimal Classification is retained.
Exercise caution in identifying orders and families of flowering plants by commonnames; many such names are used for plants in several unrelated taxonomic groups.Notes in the schedule linking the common names are not exhaustive.
583 vs. 582.13
Angiosperms (Flowering plants) vs. Plants noted for their flowers
Use 583 for works on the taxonomic group called “flowering plants,” as found in583–584. This group includes most plants that will be found in a typical vegetable gar-den. Use 582.13 for works largely limited to nondomesticated plants with attractiveflowers. These are the kind of plants that are found in nature, but that might also find aplace in flower gardens or flower books. If in doubt, prefer 583.
