*Perhaps, taxonomy, however,  is a well founded science within biology, so I would feel that scientific is as correct as taxonomic.

  • Perhaps, taxonomy, however, is a well founded science within biology, so I would feel that scientific is as correct as taxonomic. Its just a word that is a bit less specific, but I think that I do see your point (while writing this just now...) that the figure doesn't really display the entire collection of scientific classification systems that we know today, so I'll change it.
