Taxonomy is the practice and science of classification. The word comes from the Greek, taxis, 'order' + , nomos, 'law' or 'science'. Taxonomies, which are composed of taxonomic units known as taxa (singular taxon), are frequently hierarchical in structure, commonly displaying parent-child relationships.
