Elements

The LinnaeanTaxonomy Content OP locally defines the following ontology elements:

hasDirectHigherRank (owl:ObjectProperty) This property relates two taxa, where the first is more specific then the second and there is no other taxon that is both more general than the first and more specific than the second.

hasDirectHigherRank page

hasDirectLowerRank (owl:ObjectProperty) This property relates two taxa, where the first is less specific then the second and there is no other taxon that is both more specific than the first and more general than the second.

Species (owl:Class) Species is the lowest traditional taxon. E.g., in the case of humans the species is 'Homo sapiens'.

Species page

Taxon (owl:Class) A taxon is a concept denoting a type of organism or of a group of organisms.

Taxon page

Additional information

The linnaean taxonomy content ontology design pattern represents the layered classification invented by Linneus in the XVIII century. It is created by reengineering Wikipedia articles about taxa, taxonomic ranks, and linnaean taxonomy.
