- A taxonomic key is one of the most useful tools available to scientists to help them identify an unknown organism.
- Systematists (a specialist in taxonomy) use keys to help identify known organisms and determine whether they have discovered a new organism or not.
- Taxonomic keys guide researchers towards the known name of an organism.
- The key consists of a series of choices which are based on observed features of the organism.
- It provides a choice between two contradictory statements out of which one is accepted and the other rejected.
- A single pair of contradictory statements is called a couplet, and each statement of a couplet is termed a lead.
- By making the correct choice at each level of the key, one can eventually arrive at the name of the unknown plant......
