Taxonomy historyBy: Simon Galindo

Page 2: Taxonomy original

Introduction The Taxonomy is so important the early

life because  because it provides us with a way to classify, name and describe all organisms. It also helps to determine which areas need protection based on its inhabitants.

Page 3: Taxonomy original

From China One Emperator thanks to the Medicine herbal studies developled the first steps to identify,categorize and classify the living things specially the plants.Following this ideas and with neweones Ancient Greeks and Romanas…….

Page 4: Taxonomy original

“ The most important works are cited and the progress of taxonomy (with the focus on botanical taxonomy) are described up to the era of the Swedish botanist Carl Linnaeus, who founded modern taxonomy.”

Page 5: Taxonomy original

“The development after Linnaeus is characterized by a taxonomy that increasingly have come to reflect the paradigm of evolution.”

Page 6: Taxonomy original

The used characters have extended from morphological to molecular. Nomenclatural rules have developed strongly during the 19th and 20th century, and during the last decade traditional nomenclature has been challenged by advocates of the Phylocode.

Definition of taxonomy Taxonomy is the science of classificaying

and also naming organism,following some rules developed by Carl Linneus in a systematical order that indicate a natural relationship dividing in groups or categories,in a jerarchical order.

EARLIEST TAXONOMY

Page 10: Taxonomy original

Taxonomy is as old as the language skill of mankind. When we speak about ancient taxonomy we usually mean the history in the Western world.

Earliest taxonomy

Page 11: Taxonomy original

However, the earliest traces are not from the West, but from the East. Shen Nung, Emperor of China around 3000 BC He was a legendary emperor known as the Father of Chinese medicine and is believed to have introduced acupuncture.

Page 12: Taxonomy original

Around 1500 BC medicinal plants were illustrated on wall paintings in Egypt. The paintings gives us knowledge about medicinal plants in old Egypt and their names.

Page 13: Taxonomy original

In one of the oldest and largest papyrus rolls, Ebers Papyrus, plants are included as medicines for different diseases.

Page 14: Taxonomy original

1.2. The Greeks and RomansAristotle (384–322 BC)the Greek philosopher was the first to classify all living things,like the vertebrates and invertebrates, which he called animals with blood and without blood (such as insects, crustacea and testacea (molluscs).

Page 15: Taxonomy original

Carl Linnaeus accepted many of his generic names.

Page 16: Taxonomy original

Theophrastus (370–285 BC) was a student of Aristotle and Platon. He wrote a classification of all known plants, De Historia Plantarum, which contained 480 species. His classification was based on growth form, and we still recognise many of his plant genera, like Narcissus, Crocus and Cornus.

Page 17: Taxonomy original

Dioscorides (40–90 AD) was a greek physician, gathered knowledge about medicinal plants. Between 50-70 AD he wrote De Materia Medica, whichcontained around 600 species. The classification in his work is based on the medicinal properties of the species.

Page 18: Taxonomy original

Plinius (23–79 AD) He wrote many books, but the only one that has survived is his Naturalis Historia, a work of 160 voumes, in which he described several plants and gave them Latin names.

Page 21: Taxonomy original

The Herbalists

There is usually not much of a classification in the herbals, and the earliest works were merely copying Theophrastos and Dioscorides.

With time the herbals became more and more original with more elaborate woodcuts as illustrations.

Page 22: Taxonomy original
Page 23: Taxonomy original

Discorides Was a greek physician, who travelled

widely in the Roman and Greek worldto gather knowledge about medicinal plants.

Between 50-70 AD he wrote De Materia Medica, which contained around 600 species.

Herbal medicine Called botanical medicine or phytomedicin.

Refers to using a plant's seeds, berries, roots, leaves, bark, or flowers for medicinal purposes.

Herbalism has a long tradition of use outside of conventional medicine.

Page 28: Taxonomy original
Page 29: Taxonomy original

For what is good herbal medicine? Herbal medicine is used to treat many

conditions, such as asthma, eczema, premenstrual syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, migraine, menopausal symptoms, chronic fatigue, irritable bowel syndrome, and cancer, among others.

Page 30: Taxonomy original
Page 31: Taxonomy original

Benefits of herbal medicine The most beneficial contribution of

Herbal Medicine to our body is the boosting up of its energy and strengthening of the functions of the internal organ systems.

LINNAEAN ERABy: Sara Ferrer &Mikayla van den Brenk

Page 35: Taxonomy original

STARTING POINT OF MODERN TAXONOMY

For nomenclatural reasons two works of Carl Linnaeus (1707–1778, Fig. 4) are regarded as the starting points of modern botanical and zoological taxonomy.

Page 36: Taxonomy original

The global flora Species Plantarum, published in 1753 and the tenth edition of Systema Naturae in 1758 including global fauna.

Page 37: Taxonomy original

The reason for this is that Linnaeus introduced in these books a binary form of species names called "trivial names" for both plants and animals

Page 38: Taxonomy original

For each species he created an epithet that could be used together with the genus name. The trivial names were intended for fieldwork and education, and not to replace the earlier phrase names.

Page 39: Taxonomy original

The phrase names included a description of the species that distinguished it from other known species in the genus.

Page 40: Taxonomy original

With an expanded knowledge of the global fauna and flora through 17th and 18th century scientific expeditions, a large number of new species were found and named, and more terms had to be added to each phrase name.

Page 41: Taxonomy original

By the time of Linnaeus the situation was really bad. Linnaeus counted 8530 species of flowering plants in 1753.

After a long life with a massive publication in the philosophy and practicality of systematics, Linnaeus had laid out the foundation for botany and zoology, and it was now time for subsequent taxonomists to improve this newborn science.

Page 43: Taxonomy original

Transforming botany and zoology into a science

Carl Linnaeus started his career by publishing a system of all living things and minerals in 1735 called Systema Naturae. In this he introduced the sexual system of plants, an artificial classification based on the sexual parts of the flower: The stamens and pistils.

Carolus Linnaeus (23 May 1707 – 10 January 1778), also known as Carl von Linné or Carl Linnaeus. Swedish botanist, zoologist, and taxonomist.

Page 44: Taxonomy original

In a time when people debated whether plants had sexuality or not, this suggestion from an unknown person not belonging to any classical European school of natural sciences more or less shocked the scientific world.

Transforming botany and zoology into a science

Page 45: Taxonomy original

Transforming botany and zoology into a science

However, the practical use of the system and Linnaeus careful observations persuaded the critics and Linnaeus sexual system of plants became the highest fashion also outside the scientific community.

Linnaeus's sexual system for plants, based principally on the number of male and female sexual organs in flowering plants, where part a has one stamen (male) and one style (female), part b has two stamens and one style, and so forth. (Illustration by Georg Dionysius Ehret, 1736)

Page 46: Taxonomy original

1735

Transforming botany and zoology into a science

Came Genera Plantarum with a list of all known genera.

Carl Linnaeus published Critica Botanica, with rules for the formulation of generic names.

Philosophia botanica.

1736 rules for species

descriptions, terminology, and even instructions on how to build a proper herbarium cupboard.

1751

Linnaeus established many of the rules taxonomists use today. Terms like corolla, stamen, filament and another were created by him, as well as well-known taxon names like Mammalia.

Transforming botany and zoology into a science

After a long life with a massive publication in the philosophy and practicality of systematics, Linnaeus had laid out the foundation for botany and zoology, and it was now time for subsequent taxonomists to improve this newborn science.

Carl Linnaeus was born in southern Sweden. His father was a gardening enthusiast, and this interest in plants seems to have rubbed off on the son.

Post-Linnaean taxonomy

By:Alberto AgudeloAlejandro CastañoDaniel Zapata

Page 49: Taxonomy original

The French scientific work, the development of anatomy and physiology and improved optical instruments made way for a new era of taxonomy, which was trying to cope with an increasing number of species in a rapidly expanding flora and fauna of the world

Page 50: Taxonomy original

Natural system emerging in France One of the few countries in which the

Linnaean systematics did not make success was France.

Page 51: Taxonomy original

TheFrench stuck to Tournefourt and continued to work on a development of the natural system. Four

French scientists emerged that made an impact on future biological sciences.

Page 52: Taxonomy original

Georges-Luise Leclerc de Buffon (1707–1788) was a strong critic to Linnaeus work, and he found it wrong to impose an artificial order on the disorderly natural world.

Page 53: Taxonomy original

His approach was to describe the world rather than to classify it. His theories touched upon development of species, infraspecific variety and acquired inherited characters in species, which opened up a pathway for an evolutionary theory.

Page 54: Taxonomy original

Michel Adanson (1727–1806) wrote Familles des Plantes already in 1763. He launched the idea that in classification one should not put greater emphasis on some characters than on others, but use a great range of characters

He critized Linnaeus' works, and considered Tournefort's classification far superior.

Page 55: Taxonomy original

Antoine Laurent de Jussieu (1748–1836) changed the system of plants with his Genera Plantarum in 1789, in which he launched a natural system based on many characters that came to be a foundation of modern classification.

Page 56: Taxonomy original

He divided the plants into acotyledons, monocotyledons and dicotyledons and established the family rank in between the ranks "genus" and "class".

acotyledon monocotyledon

dicotyledon

Page 57: Taxonomy original

Jean-Baptiste de Lamarck (1744–1829) launched an evolutionary theory including inheritance of acquired characters, named the "Lamarckism".

Page 58: Taxonomy original

This was foreboding the theory of evolution presented by Charles Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace in 1858 in London.

Page 59: Taxonomy original

Kuntze's strict application of insufficient nomenclature laws and the nomenclatural mess he made triggered botanists to create a code of botanical nomenclature.

Page 60: Taxonomy original

In Europe this was decided on a botanical congress in Vienna in 1905. During this meeting the starting point for priority of botanical names was set to 1753, the year of Linnaeus' Species Plantarum.

Page 61: Taxonomy original

In 1842 a British ornithologist Hugh Edwin Strickland (1811–1853) elaborated the first nomenclatural laws for zoology, the "Strickland Code".

Page 62: Taxonomy original

The latest botanical code decided upon in Vienna 2005 opens up for extended possibilities to reject or conserve plant names to promote nomenclatural stability.

Page 63: Taxonomy original

Changes in the zoological code are decided upon by the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature, elected by the international society of zoologists.

RULES OFNOMENCLATU

RE

Page 65: Taxonomy original

One of the first attempts to create rules in botanical taxonomy was made by Augustin Pyramus de Candolle (1778–1841) in Théory élémentaire de la botanique in 1813.

Page 66: Taxonomy original

There he stated that published names should have priority according to the date of publication, starting with Linnaeus (withouth mentioning a particular year).

Page 67: Taxonomy original

The English did not follow that rule. On a congress in Paris, 100 botanists adopted the rules in a book by the son Alphons de Candolle (1806–1873), Lois de nomenclature adoptee from 1867

theory in 1858. However, this did not affect systematics in the beginning. Ernst Haeckel (1834–1919) and August Wilhelm Eichler (1839–18878) were two German biologists who started the construction of evolutionary trees. Haeckel established the term. "phylogeny"

Page 75: Taxonomy original

The systems of plants and animals were now huge, in flowering plants approaching a quarter of a million species.

Page 76: Taxonomy original

The German biologist Willi HennigThe German biologist Willi Hennig (1913–

1976) founded the cladistic era in 1966, by stating that only similarities grouping species (synapomorphies) should be used in classification, and that taxa should include all descendants from one single ancestor (the rule of monophyly). Hypothesis on systematics could now be tested through cladistic methods.

Page 77: Taxonomy original

The new method, called cladistics, was controversial, and it took around 20 years before it started to become established. As earlier during the century, the reformation of systematics happened earlier among zoologists than botanists. The 1980's were a decade of great debates and discussions where scientists claimed themselves to be for or against cladistics.

Page 78: Taxonomy original

With the invention of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), which made it economically possible to amplify DNA-sequences for use in systematics, and the strong development of computer programs that could handle large data sets, cladistics became more or less the rule for systematic work.

PhyloCode

By: Juan Gustavo Montoya

Page 81: Taxonomy original

With the breakthrough of cladistics analysis and constructions of phylogenetic hypotheses, the taxonomy built on the Linnaean hierarchic system became a matter of intense discussion and criticism.

Page 82: Taxonomy original

Two zoologists from USA, Kevin de Queiroz and Jacques Gauthier, started the discussions in the 1990's and laid the theoretical foundation to a new nomenclatural code for all organisms, the PhyloCode.

A meeting in Harvard in 1998 drew out the lines for a PhyloCode, and a first draft was published on the web in 2000.

Page 83: Taxonomy original

The PhyloCode reflects a philosophical shift from naming species and subsequently classifying them (i.e., into higher taxa) to naming both species and clades.

Page 84: Taxonomy original

The main idea with the PhyloCode is that only species and clades should have names, and that all ranks above species are excluded from nomenclature.

The aim is to change current names as little as possible and to build the stability on clades rather than on ranks.

Page 85: Taxonomy original

The PhyloCode is still only a draft, it is controversial, and has led to a worldwide and very interesting debate.

Its success will depend on the number of taxonomists that will use it for their taxonomic work.
