<span class="mw-page-title-main">Taxonomic treatment</span>

A taxonomic treatment is a section in a scientific publication documenting the features of a related group of organisms or taxa. Treatments have been the building blocks of how data about taxa are provided, ever since the beginning of modern taxonomy by Linnaeus 1753 for plants and 1758 for animals. Each scientifically described taxon has at least one taxonomic treatment. In today’s publishing, a taxonomic treatment tag

<i>Nepenthes candalaga</i> Tropical pitcher plant endemic to the Philippines

Nepenthes candalaga is a tropical pitcher plant endemic to Mt. Candalaga, in the Municipality of Maragusan, Davao de Oro, island of Mindanao, Philippines. This bringing the total number of Nepenthes species in this island to 38, making Mindanao the island with the highest concentration of Nepenthes species in the Philippines. Nepenthes candalaga is closely allied to N. justinae but differs in having a lamina with 2 – 3 longitudinal veins that are parallel with the midrib. Additionally, the orbicular lid of the pitchers, the lid spur tip that is non-bifid, the triangular lid appendage, the short banner-shaped wings below the peristome that covers only a sixth of the trap's anterior eventually becoming ridges towards the trap base, and the absent upper pitcher rim that is widest near the peristome differentiates this species from N. justinae. The species is assessed as Critically endangered due to the threats of deforestation and habitat loss without legislative protection.

<i>Vespa fervida</i> Species of hornet

Vespa fervida is a rare species of hornet endemic to parts of Indonesia, primarily on the island of Sulawesi. Its range is quite small, with scattered populations and nesting colonies found on very rare occasions. The species nests have been previously recorded on large plant leaves and under fences near human developments. A similar species of hornet is Vespa luctuosa, which shares multiple related traits as seen in Vespa fervida. The species name derived from the Latin word “fervida”, which translates to “hot”, so the name hot hornet may apply, but has not been officially approved. It was described by Frederick Smith in 1859, who specialized in the family Hymenoptera.

Ingolfiella rocaensis is a species of amphipod within the family Ingolfiellidae. The species was described from a specimen obtained off washed sponges from the Rocas Atoll at a depth of 14 meters. The species is distinguished from others by a small slender seta on the endopod of uropod 1. It is also the first recorded species of the Ingolfiellidea suborder reported in Brazilian waters, as previous records of the Ingolfiellidea suborder show species ranging in waters in the South Atlantic off of South Africa and Argentina.

<i>Begonia noraaunorae</i> Species of flowering plant

Begonia noraaunorae is an endemic species of Begonia found in Surigao del Sur, Mindanao Island, Philippines. The species was compared to B. negrosensis Elmer, from which it resembled by its glabrous stems, leaves that are obovately oblong in shape and with sparse hairs, the lamina with glossy surface adaxially and light green abaxially, the staminate flowers having 2 tepals, the pistillate flowers having 5 tepals, and the green ovaries. However, this species differed from B. negrosensis by its larger leaves with scattered light green patches, shorter stems, a much larger, serrated lamina, shape of tepals of staminate flower, and longer ovary with no subtending bracteoles. The species is named after the Filipina actress and National Artist, Nora Aunor. The species is classified under IUCN Red List criteria as Vulnerable.
