A last stand is a last-resort tactic that is used if retreat or surrender is impossible or fighting is essential to the success of the cause. The defending force is most likely defeated, but it sometimes survives long enough for reinforcements to arrive that force the retreat of the attackers; it can even occasionally force the enemy away by ...
Sp. (pl. spp.; short for "species") indicates potentially new species without remarking on its possible affinity. This suggests either that identification has not yet been completed or that currently available evidence and material are insufficient to allocate the specimens to relevant known taxa, or alternatively, that as yet the specimen ...
The hierarchy of biological classification's eight major taxonomic ranks.Intermediate minor rankings are not shown. Forma specialis (plural: formae speciales), abbreviated f. sp. (plural ff. spp.) without italics, is an informal taxonomic grouping allowed by the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants, [1] that is applied to a parasite (most frequently a fungus) which ...
Both codes consider the first part of the two-part name for a species to be the "generic name". In the zoological code (ICZN), the second part of the name is a "specific name". In the botanical code (ICNafp), it is a "specific epithet". Together, these two parts are referred to as a "species name" or "binomen" in the zoological code: or ...
species aggregate or aggregate species: a grouping of closely related species that are treated like a single species for practical purposes; alliance: a group of species or genera that have at some time been considered provisionally related; conspecific: of the same species; e. g. of two taxa previously thought to be different species
Species affinis (commonly abbreviated to: sp., aff., or affin. ) is taxonomic terminology in zoology and botany . In open nomenclature it indicates that available material or evidence suggests that the proposed species is related to, has an affinity to, but is not identical to, the species with the binomial name it comes after.
