The Big Five Trait taxonomy: History, measurement, and theoretical perspectives.
Oliver P. John,Sanjay Srivastava +1 more
TL;DR: The Big Five taxonomy as discussed by the authors is a taxonomy of personality dimensions derived from analyses of the natural language terms people use to describe themselves 3 and others, and it has been used for personality assessment.

Phylogenetic Species Recognition and Species Concepts in Fungi

TL;DR: A phylogenetic approach to recognize fungal species based on concordance of multiple gene genealogies is compared to those based on morphology and reproductive behavior.

A study of fluctuating asymmetry
TL;DR: No new evidence is given as to buffering against environmental stresses of a larger scale, such as temperature or the presence of parasites, but a mean positive correlation between the fluctuating asymmetries of a number of un-
The General Lineage Concept of Species, Species Criteria, and the Process of Speciation
TL;DR: This chapter provides a general theoretical context that accounts for both the unity and the diversity of ideas represented by alternative species definitions, and proposes a revised and conceptually unified terminology for the ideas described by contemporary species definitions.

A Radical Solution to the Species Problem
TL;DR: Hull (1974) has lately endorsed the idea that, from the point of view of evolutionary theory, biological species and monophyletic taxa are individuals, and Mayr (1969a), while not going so far, strongly emphasizes the point that species are more than just nominal classes.
