taxonym

名词 n.

英文释义

名词 n.
  1. A word used for classification purposes, that is, one that makes up part of a taxonomy; a name or label for a taxon or clade
    — If a single phyletic series alone is known it is then covered by a single taxonym (however it may be artificially segmented into subsidiary taxa); but if collateral branches are later found, or reconstructed, or attached by the systematist — branches each one of which includes the ancestor — there is an embarrassment of incompatibles in the taxonomics, for the reason justifying the creation of new taxa at the cladal fork to express the evolutionary divergence is extraneous to the taxonymic unity of any one clade.
  2. A hyponym that differs only by properties that are highlighted in the corresponding hypernym.
    — Ash-blonde and strawberry blonde are satisfactory taxonyms of blonde, but they are by no means the optimal subcategories of BLONDE.
