Template:Taxobox

About this template
This template sets up a taxobox, with a choice of over 135 parameters. Although the implementation is complicated, it is relatively simple to use. For an example in practice, look at the edit page of Killer Whale - []. Most parameters are optional, so if a particular entry is not relevant for your case, just leave it out.
