Template:R from monotypic taxon

When used with the "Redirect category shell" (Rcat shell) template:

This page is a redirect:

From a monotypic taxon: This is a redirect from a monotypic taxon to its only lower-ranking member. In a biology-related article, when for example a family has only one genus, the family may be a redirect to the genus.
- Use {{R to monotypic taxon}} when making a redirect to a monotypic taxon from its only member, for example, from a species to the genus of which it is the only member.

When appropriate, protection levels are automatically sensed, described and categorized.

Template {{Redirect category shell}} may be used to add one or more rcat templates, along with their parameters and categories, to a redirect. For more information see the documentation page below.
