I'd like to order more information: how many orders of plants are there? how many of animals? I'd like a side order of a link to a list. Thank you. Pliny 20:15, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
The article says that the term 'order' was introduced by Rivinus instead of genus summum. But, in aphorism 200, Linnaeus's Philosophia Botanica, Linnaeus indicates his term ordo corresponds to sectio of Tournefort and genus subalternum of Ray and Rivinus. Also his classis to ordo of Tournefort and genus summum of Ray and Rivinus. In Latin, genus summum literally means "the highest genus". So it seems reasonable that genus summum corresponds to classis in Linnean system and ordo in Tournefort's system, as these terms are the highest rank in each system. So my question is "Is it certain that Rivinus (not Tournefort) has introduced the term 'order'?" Please note I am quite new to Latin and I have never read treatises of Tournefort, Rivinus, and Ray.-- Mzaki 07:59, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
There should be a better picture to illustrate what makes a midge different from other small black flies.

I am alarmed at the attachment of this article apparently only to WikiProject Plants; the rank applies in animal taxonomy also, as therefore should the article given its inclusive title.
"order (ordo) was reserved for a higher rank, for what in the nineteenth century had often been boobinlaw or Labiatae)"
The final words of the above appear to be an editing error. The word "boobinlaw" is unknown to me or the dictionaries and the word Labiatae is apparently that of a [ plant Family] and does not parse coherently in the context. Iph 18:46, 23 May 2007 (UTC)iph
I don't understand the last sentence of the intro: "Most of orders ends up with word -iformes, except for mammals and invertebrates." Could someone clarify? -- Allen ( talk) 19:43, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
' The Latin suffix -(i)formes meaning "having the form of" is used for the scientific name of most orders, except for those of mammals and invertebrates. '
But I don't know if the fact is accurate -- and perhaps it would be better stated in reverse: for the names of most avian and reptilian (and other?) orders, as invertebrate orders certainly are more numerous...

The Parvorder article redirects here, but there is no description of this recent term — not found in dictionaries. It needs a sub-section explaining its coining, etymology, and whether universally accepted or not (in ornithology, other fields).
Other types of orders (infraorder, etc.) then need a brief sub-section each also.
Mirorder redirects here, but this article does not seem to define the term. What does it mean?-- Nø ( talk) 14:46, 5 February 2011 (UTC)
Even though the ICZN does not regulate the formation of Order names, would it be useful to include a description of how most of them are formed, and also a list of suffixes commonly used? For example, -ia, -acea, -idea, etc. Myrddin_Wyllt 11/4/2012
I am doing a class project, and need a good grade😝! So I have been looking for the past 1 or 2 hours for how you define what order an animal is, and I was wondering if any of you guys know, Please respond quick!!! SOSOS
The image for all the rankings is in Burmese (I assume), and I checked the other rankings, and their image was changed as well. When I went to copy the English picture back, it was deleted. Can someone change the pictures back. ScienceFan66 ( talk) 23:44, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
An editor has identified a potential problem with the redirect Order(biology) and has thus listed it for discussion. This discussion will occur at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2022 April 6#Order(biology) until a consensus is reached, and readers of this page are welcome to contribute to the discussion.
