It is attributed to Linnaeus, although he neither invented the concept (it goes back to Aristotle) nor gave it its present form. In fact, it does not have an exact present form, Linnaean taxonomy is a collective term for what actually are several separate fields, which use similar approaches. The same applies to "Linnaean name": depending on context this may either be a formal name given by Linnaeus (personallly), such as Giraffa camelopardalis Linnaeus, 1758, or a formal name in the accepted nomenclature (as opposed to a modernistic clade name).

- Linnaean taxonomy classifies living things into a hierarchy, originally starting with kingdoms. Today, many biologists consider Domains to be a classification above Kingdoms. Kingdoms are divided into phyla (singular: phylum)—for animals; the term division, used for plants, is equivalent to the rank of phylum (and the current International Code of Botanical Nomenclature allows the use of either term). Phyla (or divisions) are divided into classes, and they, in turn, into orders, families, genera (singular: genus), and species (singular: species). Variety (varietas) and form (forma) are ranks below the level of subspecies that are unique to plant classification; "form" has largely fallen out of favor (although some botanists still cling to this rank), and many botanists now prefer to use "subspecies" instead of "variety" although the two are not, strictly speaking, of equivalent rank. Groups of organisms at any of these ranks are called taxa (singular: taxon), or phyla, or taxonomic groups.
