Taxonomy
- 1
- American Society of Plant Taxonomists
- Promotes research and teaching in the taxonomy, systematics, and phylogeny of vascular and nonvascular plants.
- 2
- Biomedical Ontology
- About two dozen links collected by the Ontology Project at the philosophy department of State University of New York at Buffalo.

- DELTA: Description Language for Taxonomy
- A flexible format for encoding taxonomic descriptions for computer processing. It can be used to produce natural-language descriptions, conventional or interactive keys, classifications, and information-retrieval systems.
- 4
- Fairchild Tropical Garden Virtual Herbarium
- Includes photos of more than 50,000 plant, palm, cycad and other cultivated tropical plants from Florida and taxonomic information on grasses, especially bamboos, and other economically important and interesting plants.
- 5
- Integrated Taxonomic Information System
- Authoritative taxonomic information on plants, animals, fungi, and microbes of North America and the world.
- 6
- Taxonomy
- Information from Wikipedia on the practice and science of classification, the arrangement of organisms in a hierarchical structure.
- 7
- Tree of Life
- A project containing information about the diversity of organisms on Earth, their history, and characteristics. The information is linked together in the form of the evolutionary tree that connects all organisms to each other.

- What is Cladistics?
- The methods and terminology of phylogenetic systematics explained by the magazine Fossil News.

- PAUP*
- PAUP is the most widely used package for phylogenetic inference, and now implements maximum likelihood and distance methods as well as various forms of parsimony. Powerful and very easy to use, particularly the Mac version.
- 11
- PHYLIP
- Joe Felsenstein's suite of programs implementing perhaps the widest range of phylogenetic inference package. The most widely distributed phylogeny software. Includes distance, likelihood and parsimony methods for a wide range of different types of data, and runs on most platforms.
- 14
- Tree Puzzle
- Computer program to reconstruct phylogenetic trees from molecular sequence data by maximum likelihood.
- 15
- The Compleat Cladist: A Primer of Phylogenetic Procedures
- A book about the basics of cladistics. [PDF]
- 16
- CAIC
- Comparative Analysis via Independent Constrasts. Software for Macintosh implementing the independent constrasts method for phylogenetically correct comparative methods.
- 17
- MacroCAIC
- MacroCAIC is a CAIC derivative for testing correlates of species richness using comparative tests.
- 20
- Lucid
- A system for creating, maintaining, distributing and playing interactive identification keys.
