Subspecies

Taxa below species level that are perceived to have at least some degree of consistent differences in morphology, genotype, and/or life history, and are usually geographically or seasonally differentiated (although they often “blend” together in areas of sympatry). There are no formal rules or even general guidelines regarding the use and designation of subspecies names, and consequently subspecies names are often controversial and inconsistent.
