== Usage ==
This template is one of a number intended for use in taxoboxes under the {{para|subdivision}} or {{para|synonyms}} parameters, to produce a list of taxa in a consistent format. The table below shows the behaviour of the available templates.

{| class="wikitable"
!colspan="3"|Taxon name!!rowspan="2"| Template
|-
! Italicized !! Linked !! Bold
|-
| no || no || no || {{tl|Taxon list}}
|-
| no || yes || no || {{tl|Linked taxon list}}
|-
| no || no || yes || {{tl|Bold taxon list}}
|-
| yes || no || no || {{tl|Species list}}, alias <nowiki>{{Genus list}}</nowiki>
|-
| yes || yes || no || {{tl|Linked species list}}, alias <nowiki>{{Linked genus list}}</nowiki>
|-
| yes || no || yes || {{tl|Bold species list}}, alias <nowiki>{{Bold genus list}}</nowiki>
|}

Use like this:
{{#ifeq:{{{1|Specieslist}}}|Specieslist|<pre>{{Species list
| Spexia speciosa | Authority, 2003
| †Spexia additiona | Others et al., 2002
| Spexia typa | Describer, 1888 (type)
| Spexia dubia |
| Specia dubia ''subsp.'' maxima |
}}</pre>}}{{#ifeq:{{{1|}}}|Taxonlist|<pre>{{Taxon list
| †Smithiaceae | Authority
| Jonesiaceae |
| Junkiaceae | Describer
}}</pre>}}

Both the taxon name and authority will be automatically formatted to produce:

{{#ifeq:{{{1|Specieslist}}}|Specieslist|{{Species list
| Spexia speciosa | Authority, 2003
| †Spexia additiona | Others et al., 2002
| Spexia typa | Describer, 1888 (type)
| Spexia dubia |
| Specia dubia ''subsp.'' maxima |
}} }}{{#ifeq:{{{1|}}}|Taxonlist|{{Taxon list
| †Smithiaceae | Authority
| Jonesiaceae |
| Junkiaceae | Describer
}} }}

Note that if the authority is not known, the "|" must still be present after the taxon name.

{{#ifeq:{{{1|Specieslist}}}|Specieslist|If a "connecting term" is present in a botanical name, such as "subsp.", "var." or "f.", then this should not be italicized. The template should automatically de-italicize connecting terms. If this fails, you can put <nowiki>''</nowiki> either side of the connecting term to de-italicize it.}}

Mark incomplete lists using {{para|incomplete|yes}}, which will add "(incomplete)" to the end of the list.

===Variations===

To automatically link the content of every taxon name, use {{tl|Linked {{#ifeq:{{{1|Specieslist}}}|Specieslist|species list|}}{{#ifeq:{{{1|}}}|Taxonlist|taxon list|}}}}. {{#ifeq:{{{1|Specieslist}}}|Specieslist|To bold-face the species (e.g. if they will never have their own pages, when listed in a genus article) use {{tl|Bold species list}}.|}}

For example:

{{#ifeq:{{{1|Specieslist}}}|Specieslist|<pre>{{Linked species list / {{Linked genus list
| Spexia speciosa | Authority, 2003
| †Spexia additiona | Others et al., 2002
| Spexia typa | Describer, 1888 (type)
| Spexia dubia {{!}} S. dubia | <!--creates a piped link-->
| ''[[Puma (genus) {{!}} Puma ]]'' | Jardine, 1834 <!--handles a disambiguated genus name-->
}}</pre> }}{{#ifeq:{{{1|}}}|Taxonlist|<pre>{{Linked taxon list
| †Smithiaceae | Authority
| Jonesiaceae |
| Junk flowers {{!}} Junkiaceae | Describer <!--creates a piped link-->
| ''[[Puma (genus) {{!}} Puma ]]'' | Jardine, 1834 <!--handles a disambiguated genus name-->
}}</pre> }}

produces

{{#ifeq:{{{1|Specieslist}}}|Specieslist|{{Linked species list
| Spexia speciosa | Authority, 2003
| †Spexia additiona | Others et al., 2002
| Spexia typa | Describer, 1888 (type)
| Spexia dubia {{!}} S. dubia |
| ''[[Puma (genus) {{!}} Puma ]]'' | Jardine, 1834 <!--handles a disambiguated genus name-->
}} }}{{#ifeq:{{{1|}}}|Taxonlist|{{Linked taxon list
| †Smithiaceae | Authority
| Jonesiaceae |
| Junk flowers {{!}} Junkiaceae | Describer
}} }}
{{#ifeq:{{{1|Specieslist}}}|Specieslist|
Each of the three "species list" templates has a "genus list" alias.}}

===Extinct taxa===

The name of an extinct taxon can be preceded by one of the following markers: <code>† &amp;dagger; <nowiki>{{extinct}}</nowiki></code>. Any of them will appear as † in the output. The † will not be italicized and will not be included in a wikilink.

* <nowiki>{{Genus list}}</nowiki>, <nowiki>{{Linked genus list}}</nowiki> and <nowiki>{{Bold genus list}}</nowiki> are aliases for the equivalent "Species list" templates.
