An evolutionary grade is a group of species united by morphological or physiological traits, that has given rise to another group that has major differences from the ancestral group's condition, and is thus not considered part of the ancestral group, while still having enough similarities that we can group them under the same clade.
A species range map represents the region where individuals of a species can be found. This is a range map of Juniperus communis, the common juniper.. Species distribution, or species dispersion, [1] is the manner in which a biological taxon is spatially arranged. [2]

Images which may be shared across GBIF need to be licensed using one of the following licences: CC0, CC-BY 4.0 or CC BY-NC, that is, the CC-BY-SA default licence will not permit images to be accessible via GBIF. Therefore, for images to be shared to GBIF and to be able to be used in Wikipedia, a CC-BY 4.0 licence is necessary.
Of 70,000 monitored species, around 48% are experiencing population declines from human activity (in 2023), whereas only 3% have increasing populations.

Systematic biology (hereafter called simply systematics) is the field that (a) provides scientific names for organisms, (b) describes them, (c) preserves collections of them, (d) provides classifications for the organisms, keys for their identification, and data on their distributions, (e) investigates their evolutionary histories, and (f ...
Age class structure refers to the distribution of individuals in a population through different age groups. This is one tool used in fisheries and wildlife management as part of population assessment and modeling.
The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to genetics: . Genetics – science of genes, heredity, and variation in living organisms. [1] [2] Genetics deals with the molecular structure and function of genes, and gene behavior in context of a cell or organism (e.g. dominance and epigenetics), patterns of inheritance from parent to offspring, and gene distribution ...
