Form (botany)
In
botanical nomenclature
, a
form
(
forma
, plural
formae
) is one of the "secondary"
taxonomic ranks
, below that of
variety
, which in turn is below that of species; it is an
infraspecific taxon
. If more than three ranks are listed in describing a taxon, the "classification" is being specified, but only three parts make up the "name" of the taxon: a
genus
name, a
specific epithet
, and an
infraspecific epithet
.
