Abstract

Classification sensu lato pursues the recognition of categories, the hierarchical arrangement expressing the (dis)similarity between them and the unique and distinct denominations between levels of division (Anonymous 2003). These principles have been applied across various disciplines related to biology, such as taxonomy, systematics, and phylogeny, which have taken on these tasks from a precise definition of the level of specific organization.
