Linked comprehension type: Taxonomic work involves studies both in field and in laboratory. The information thus gathered about the species is to be stored for future taxonomic work. The actual specimens are also collected, preserved and stored for verification. if required later on. This helps taxonomists in identification of species and their placement in taxonomic hierarchy. Herbaria, Botanical gardens, Museums, Zoological parks, Keys, Manuals, Monograph, Periodicals are commonly used taxonomic aids. 35.
