Usage
This template operates in a similar manner to Template:Automatic taxobox. Please see that template for general usage instructions.
There is no equivalent of {{Speciesbox}} for ichnospecies; almost all articles are about ichnogenera and ichnofamilies.
The top-level taxon for ichnotaxa - i.e. the parent for ichnotaxa that have no higher classification - is "Ichnos".
