Around 8.7 million species of plants and animals are thought to exist, according to scientists. However, to far, only about 1.2 million species, the most of which are insects, have been recognized and described
Hotspots are also home to endemic species, which can only be found in a single place
The taxonomic classification system was developed by the Swedish botanist Carolus Linnaeus, who lived during the 18th Century, and his system of classification is still used today
The taxonomic classification system today has eight ranks from general to specific: domain, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species
