A late 19th Century diagram of plant life, with botanical classifications ranging from fungi, seaweed, moss, ferns, wild flowers, shrubs and trees. Plant taxonomy is the science that finds, identifies, describes, classifies, and names plants. Plant taxonomy is closely allied to plant systematics, and there is no sharp boundary between the two. In practice, "Plant systematics" involves relationships between plants and their evolution, especially at the higher levels, whereas "plant taxonomy" deals with the actual handling of plant specimens.
