But there his science came to a halt. Classifying was everything to him, so he knew nothing else.

Robert Mooney is a biologist with Marine Taxonomic Services. He led a team of three divers at the site.

The fact is that taxonomy by and large is still quaintly wedded to paper.

实际情况是。总来说，学仍按老一套停留在纸上。

While systematics sheds light on organisms' evolutionary history and relationships, taxonomy focuses more on their characteristics.

系学揭示了生进化历史和关系，而学更多地关注它们特征。

Taxonomy is described sometimes as a science and sometimes as an art, but really it's a battleground.

学有时候被描述成一门科学，有时候被描述成一种艺术，但实际上那是一个战场。

You can learn about everything from Earth's shifting crust to Taxonomy and more!

And, sort of like organizing your stuffed plant collection, scientists use taxonomy and systematics to organize the world of living things.

就像整理你植标本一样，科学家们用学和系学来整理生世界。

Taxonomy is messy, and after scientists learned more about biology and genetics, they found exceptions to the rule.

学是混乱，在科学家们对生学和遗传学有了更多了解之后，他们发现了规则例外情况。

" Cyber taxonomy" , for instance, involves feeding DNA sequences from animals into computers, which can quickly decide whether it is a new species.

例如，“网络学”涉及了将动DNA序列输入计算机，由此迅速确定它是否是一个新种。

That means taxonomists created the entire category of lesser ape just to single out the poor gibbon as the weird kid on the playground.
