*
 
Usually the species tags are constructed as shown below, but not all levels are always present (especially for fictional species, which are not in the real life classification).


 
○ highest level group for both fictional and real animals (mammal, bird, reptile)
 
○○ high level group in the rank of order/suborder/family (dinosaur, canine, feline, rodent)
 
○○○ genus (marten) or common name for species from different genera (fox, badger)
 
○○○○ species (red fox, golden eagle, European badger)
 
and sometimes, if a species has them:  
○○○○○ breed or prominent color morph^*^ (husky, maine coon, silver fox)

^* - if a species has any prominent ones^


 
In case of the more popular species you should not be worried about all levels when tagging, the implications adding necessary tags should be already in place. For example:
 
![full](https://i.imgur.com/K9D1fgq.png!
)  
When adding the tag "[husky":](/tags/husky) to a picture there will be also "dog, canine, mammal" automatically added to that picture when the changes are applied because this tag implies those three other tags.


 
There are no tags like "avian" or "scalie" in use (they are aliased to "bird" and "reptile" respectively). Fictional species should be tagged with what they are based on + "[fictional species":](/tags/original+species).


 
Examples:


 
mammal -> canine -> fox -> red fox
 
mammal -> feline -> cat -> maine coon
 
reptile -> snake -> rattlesnake -> timber rattlesnake
 
bird + fictional species -> gryphon -> blue jay gryphon
 
reptile + fictional species -> dragon -> night fury

Usually the species tags are constructed as shown below, but not all levels are always present (especially for fictional species, which are not in the real life classification).

*NOTE (2020-07-21):* The usage of "avian" and "scalie" tags is curenntly the subject of a debate (see "this thread":/forums/tagging/topics/species-supertags ), they probably will get replaced by using a combination of "bird" + "fictional species" and "reptile" + "fictional species", so I'm putting them in spoilers, [spoiler]example[/spoiler]

○ highest level group for both fictional and real animals (mammal, [spoiler]avian, scalie[/spoiler])
○○ high level group (bird, reptile, dinosaur)
○○○ medhiumgh level group in the rank of order/suborder/family (dinosaur, canine, feline, rodent)
○○○○ genus (marten) or common name for species from different genera (fox, badger)
○○○○○ species (red fox, golden eagle, European badger)

In case of the more popular species you should not be worried about all levels when tagging, the implications adding necessary tags should be already in place.

Examples:

mammal -> canine -> fox -> red fox
reptile -> snake -> rattlesnake -> timber rattlesnake
bird + fictional species -> gryphon -> blue jay gryphon
