Organization Needed
[edit]The present organization of this page allows no path for readers interested in, e.g., the North American clade to follow up. The article, in effect, says that the old Genus / species taxonomic organization has been judged inadequate and has been replaced by the higher-res "tribe" and "clade" organization — but then fails to provide links to follow up on this — and then proceeds to provide only links to genera.
This may make sense to those writing the articles, but is opaque to those reading them. rowley (talk) 23:07, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
- I'm not sure exactly what you are suggesting, but the article could certainly be expanded quite a bit, including a lot more discussion of what is in the North American clade and so on. To some extent, whether this is practical depends on how much of a scientific consensus there is. When a classification gets rearranged as fundamentally as this one, it usually takes a fair bit of time from different researchers to place all the species (there are 2,800 of them).
