taxonomic group

Of all the major taxonomic groups studied, only snails and slugs are 'easy' to find in Los Angeles, probably because of the abundance of landscaping, gardens and irrigation.

The study describes 16 different taxonomic groups in which cell-in-cell behavior is found to occur.

There have been only four taxonomic groups, but Dr. Watanabe and his team sought evidence to prove that there were more.

Analyzing the genetic sequence of this strain, they found that R. marina does not align with its previously assumed taxonomic group but is closely related to chlorarachnid algae within the phylum Cercozoa.

"We have to build communities of specialists for most taxonomic groups of the organisms we're going to collect."
