For plant subgenus names, the style "Template:Taxonomy/Genus subg. Subgenus" is used. (The bare subgenus name should not be used, because then the taxonomy template for the nominate subgenus, such Mus or Banksia subg. Banksia, cannot be distinguished from the taxonomy template for the genus.)
For animals and non-flowering plants, use unranked taxa sparingly. The need to include unranked taxa generally indicates that you are following phylogenetic nomenclature . It is usually better to abbreviate the classification to the major ranks and then discuss the classification in more detail in the article.
Please include a direct parent category in the taxonomy whenever possible; for a species, the family is likely an available category. For a family, the order is probably available. See the subcategories under Category:Animals; most of the subcategories listed there have lower-level subcategories that may fit better. Multiple categories may be ...
More accurately, if |taxon=TAXON, the system will expect there to be a page at "Template:Taxonomy/TAXON".
