Hey here's your answer
In biology, a taxon is a group of one or more populations of an organism or organisms seen by taxonomists to form a unit. Although neither is required, a taxon is usually known by a particular name and given a particular ranking, especially if and when it is accepted or becomes established. It is not uncommon, however, for taxonomists to remain at odds over what belongs to a taxon and the criteria used for inclusion. If a taxon is given a formal scientific name, its use is then governed by one of the nomenclature codes specifying which scientific name is correct for a particular grouping.
Forexample, the basic level of classification is species, followed by genus, family, order, class, phylum or division, in ascending order.
Hope this works out

plural of taxon.
a taxonomic category, as a species orgenus.
Historical Examples
A considerable amount of variation in thisparameter was found in all of the taxa (Table 5).
Middle American Frogs of the Hyla microcephala Group
William E. Duellman
Calls of all five taxa were compared in severalcharacteristics, of which three are deemed mostsignificant systematically.
Middle American Frogs of the Hyla microcephala Group
William E. Duellman
Three are monotypic and the fourth has threesubspecies, making a total of six taxa.
A Revision of Snakes of the Genus Conophis (Family Colubridae, from Middle America)
John Wellman
Each of these taxa is retained as a subgenus of a single genus, Orthogeomys.
Evolution and Classification of the Pocket Gophers of the Subfamily Geomyinae
Robert J. Russell
Thus, due to Cochran and Goin's confusion of twotaxa, their comparisons of certain specimenswith types has little meaning.
