phy:Taxonomy 

Element Taxonomy is used to describe taxonomic information for a clade.
Element 'code' is intended to store UniProt/Swiss-Prot style organism codes (e.g.
'APLCA' for the California sea hare 'Aplysia californica'). Element 'authority' is used
to keep the authority, such as 'J. G. Cooper, 1863', associated with the
'scientific_name'. Element 'id' is used for a unique identifier of a taxon (for example
'6500' with 'ncbi_taxonomy' as 'provider' for the California sea hare). Attribute
'id_source' is used to link other elements to a taxonomy (on the
xml-level).
