摘要: Keywords: Rhinocerotidae subspecies conservation polytypic species concept Abstract Ontological and epistemological properties of the Phylogenetic Species Concept (PSC) as applied in recent mammalian taxonomic works are redefined defended against criticisms raised by Zachos Lovari (2013), which we find inapplicable to taxonomy because they relate more field population biology. We summarize negative impacts for evolutionary biology, with emphasis on Rhinocerotidae. The priority need embrace strengthen museum-based research is emphasized.
