TSN {{{ID}}}. Integrated Taxonomic Information System.

 Purpose and description

This template creates a link to the Integrated Taxonomic Information System (ITIS), a database containing scientific names of biological taxa and a history of their classification.

 Use and example

To use the template, you first need to search ITIS to find the taxon's ID number. The example wiki text

{{ITIS|ID=506801|taxon=''Camellia sinensis''|year=2006|date=16 February}}

creates

Camellia sinensis (TSN 506801). Integrated Taxonomic Information System. Accessed on 16 February 2006.

You can also use this as a TSN reference only by leaving out the taxon name; you may choose this format when you're using this template on second reference or when the taxon is clear from context. For example:

{{ITIS|ID=506801}}

creates

TSN 506801. Integrated Taxonomic Information System.

Finally, to hide the interwiki link to Integrated Taxonomic Information System, you can add the optional parameter showITIS with a value of "no":

{{ITIS|ID=506801|showITIS=no}}

creates

TSN 506801

This may be useful in cases where the ITIS link is given inline, for example:

The seeds of Camellia sinensis (TSN 506801) can be pressed...

Note: The citation style always adds a period after the last term unless neither the date nor the ITIS link are displayed.

 Parameters

• ID: The Taxonomic Serial Number (TSN) of the taxon in ITIS.
• taxon (optional): The taxon's name. (Should be included, but in some cases, the taxon's name will be implicit from context.)
• date, year (optional): The date the report was retrieved from ITIS.
• showITIS (optional, defaults to "yes"): A flag to determine whether or not the interwiki link to the Integrated Taxonomic Information System page will be shown.
