Explain the History of Animal Taxonomy?

The beginning of animal taxonomy was made by Aristotle (384-322 B.C.). He extensively studied about anatomy, embryology, habit and ecology. He was able to conclude that animals can be classified according to their way of living actions, habits and body parts. His major study includes:

i) Distinction of mandibulate from haustellate types,

ii) Winged from wingless forms among insects,

iii) Monitoring other animals like birds, fishes and whales. Orders like Coleoptera, Diptera and Psychae (now Lepidoptera) were created by him.
