Template:MSW3 Castoridae/doc

This template takes an optional id parameter, heading and page number or numbers for the MSW3 entry on the species or other subtaxon in question.

For example:

gives

for the American beaver, Castor canadensis (the chapter link goes to the MSW3 web page for the species entry, while the title link goes to the Google Books preview for MSW3).

In the following example, a heading is added, which then replaces "Family Castoridae":

giving

for Castor (the heading link now goes to the MSW3 web page for the genus entry).

An optional ref parameter is supported but seldom used. It allows specification of reference names in Harvard references, for use in the citation template family. For example, use of harvid or SfnRef templates enables subsequent use of short-format templates like harvnb or sfn (see Yarkand hare and Long-tailed vole for examples of usage).
