• Identification is very different from classification, which is even more problematic • There are several methods for identifying plants • Many books rely on matching a description or illustration with the plant you have in hand • Most people first go to books with color photos, but actually good line drawings can show more detail

The goals of modern plant taxonomy are the description, identification, and classification of plants: Plant description is a formal description of a newly discovered species published in the form of a scientific paper.
List the seven levels of the plant classification system. Recognize the taxonomic diversity of common foods in your diet. Summarize the contribution of Linneaus to binomial nomenclature. Understand how the two-part scientific naming system works and its applications.
Plant systematics is an old science that uses the gross morphology (physical characteristics, [i.e., flower form, leaf shape, fruit form, etc.]) and, more recently, genetic information to understand their relationships and heritage.
Carl Linnaeus (a Swedish botanist from the 18thcentury) created a system of classification in which every living organism was given two Latin names – a genus name followed by a species name. For example, Quercus robur (the common oak tree). This is called the binomial naming system.
