## Lyrics

We can say thank you

We can say thanks for all you do

We can say thank you

For all you do

Everyone of us

In the wave of life

Gives a little each day

For the things we need

We turn to one another and

Help is on the way

Nurses doctors cleaners and drivers

Farmers teachers and more

So many helpers to be found

Help is all around

We can say thank you

We can say thanks for all you do

We can say thank you

For all you do

Everyone of us

In the wave of life

Gives a little each day

For the things we need

We turn to one another and

Help is on the way

Nurses doctors cleaners and drivers

Farmers teachers and more

So many helpers to be found

Help is all around

We can say thank you

We can say thanks for all you do

We can say thank you

For all you do

## Lyrics

Evergreen, everblue

As it was in the beginning,

We've got to see it through

Evergreen, everblue

At this point in time,

It's up to me, it's up to you

Amazon is calling, help this planet Earth

With voices from the jungle, help this planet Earth

Hear the tree that's falling, help this planet Earth

Rain forests are crying, help this planet Earth to stay...

Evergreen, everblue

As it was in the beginning,

We've got to see it through

Evergreen, everblue

At this point in time,

It's up to me, it's up to you

Ocean's wave is rumbling, help this planet Earth

With voices from the sea waves, help this planet Earth

Water's for the drinking, come on and help this planet Earth

Beluga whales are singing, help this planet Earth to stay...

Evergreen, everblue

As it was in the beginning,

We've got to see it through

Evergreen, everblue

At this point in time,

It's up to me, it's up to you

Right now is when we're needed

We can all do something

The young, the old together, the more we help this planet Earth

'Cause the more we get together, we will help this planet Earth

So come all United Nations and help this planet Earth

Children of one mother, help this planet Earth

Eleanor Roosevelt

**Anna Eleanor Roosevelt** (/ˈɛlɪnɔːr ˈroʊzəvɛlt/; October 11, 1884 – November 7, 1962) was an American political figure, diplomat, and activist. She served as the first lady of the United States from 1933 to 1945, during her husband President Franklin D. Roosevelt's four terms in office, making her the longest-serving first lady of the United States. Roosevelt served as United States Delegate to the United Nations General Assembly from 1945 to 1952. President Harry S. Truman later called her the "First Lady of the World" in tribute to her human rights achievements.

Raffi mentions Roosevelet on his song: Oh Yes We Can on his 2009 album: Communion.
Evangeline

**Evangeline** is a Robbie MacNeill song covered by Raffi on Adult Entertainment.

## Lyrics

It's feeling like a wasted night

The piano's dead, the drummer's tight

The song's gone cold but no one seems to mind

Evangeline I'll try again some time

I've heard it from a friend or two

They say they like the things I do

But friends are seldom more than company

Evangeline, you're what a friend should be

Freedom friend you've found me

Now love is all around me

Imagine my surprise, imagine my surprise

The city streets are no place to hide

And failure loves me like a bride

But points her finger now to someone new

So, Evangeline, I'm coming home to you

Freedom friend you've found me

Now love is all around me

Imagine my surprise, imagine my surprise

It's feeling like a wasted night

The piano's dead, the drummer's tight

The song's gone cold, but no one seems to mind

Evangeline I'll try again some time

Cool It

**Cool It** is a Raffi song released on January 31st 2007.

## Lyrics

Cool it, cool it, cool this planet down, cool it, cool it down

Cool it, cool it, cool this planet down, cool it, cool it down

Temperatures are rising

Arctic ice is melting

Polar bears are scrambling

The heat is all around

We’ve got to cool it down, cool it cool it down

Appealing to the masses

To cut our greenhouse gases down

Wacky weather here

Stormy weather there

Climate change is on us

The signs are everywhere

We’ve got to cool it down, cool it cool it down

Take shelter from the storm, come together

Cool it down

Come CEOs & governments, hear the people’s call

Don’t leave your engines idle, there’s no time to stall

All around the world, in the country and the towns

There’s a growing global chorus and it’s ringing in the halls

Cool it, cool it, cool this planet down, cool it, cool it down

Cool it, cool it, cool this planet down, cool it, cool it down

Do it for the children, do it for yourself

Everybody's needed, everyone can help

Cool it, cool it, cool this planet down, cool it, cool it down

Cool it, cool it, cool this planet down, cool it, cool it down

Let's hear that guitar.

[Guitar solo]

A little bit of piano.

[Piano solo]

Cool it, cool it, cool this planet down, cool it, cool it down

Cool it, cool it, cool this planet down, cool it, cool it down

We can do it, turn this world around, cool it cool it down

Cool it, cool it, cool this planet down, cool it cool it down

Giraffes

The **giraffe** (*Giraffa*) is an African artiodactyl mammal, the tallest living terrestrial animal and the largest ruminant. It is traditionally considered to be one species, *Giraffa camelopardalis*, with nine subspecies. However, the existence of up to eight extant giraffe species has been described, based upon research into the mitochondrial and nuclear DNA, as well as morphological measurements of *Giraffa*. Seven other species are extinct, prehistoric species known from fossils.

The giraffe's chief distinguishing characteristics are its extremely long neck and legs, its horn-like ossicones, and its distinctive coat patterns. It is classified under the family Giraffidae, along with its closest extant relative, the okapi. Its scattered range extends from Chad in the north to South Africa in the south, and from Niger in the west to Somalia in the east. Giraffes usually inhabit savannahs and woodlands. Their food source is leaves, fruits and flowers of woody plants, primarily acacia species, which they browse at heights most other herbivores cannot reach.

Giraffes may be preyed on by lions, leopards, spotted hyenas and African wild dogs. Giraffes live in herds of related females and their offspring, or bachelor herds of unrelated adult males, but are gregarious and may gather in large aggregations. Males establish social hierarchies through "necking", which are combat bouts where the neck is used as a weapon. Dominant males gain mating access to females, which bear the sole responsibility for raising the young.

Joshua Giraffe is featured on the album Baby Beluga.

## Lyrics

* More Singable Songs/Quiet Time
* Raffi's Christmas Album

Snows are a falling on Douglas Mountain,

Snows are a falling so deep.

Snows are a falling on Douglas Mountain,

Putting the bears to sleep.

Putting the bears to sleep.

Trimming the wicks on Douglas Mountain,

Shining my chimney so bright.

Trimming the wicks on Douglas Mountain,

So God can bring the night.

So God can bring the night.

Snows are a falling on Douglas Mountain,

Snows are a falling so deep.

Snows are a falling on Douglas Mountain,

Putting all the bears to sleep.

Putting the bears to sleep.

Trimming the wicks on Douglas Mountain,

Shining my chimney so bright.

Trimming the wicks on Douglas Mountain,

So God can bring the night.

So God can bring the night.

## Lyrics

La da da da daa

La da da da daa

Da da da da daa

Green dream, I have a green dream

A dream about you and me, and of what can be

Green dream, for all the children

The ones who play with us, and the ones to come

Dreaming in Mother Nature’s arms

About the world we share, and how much we care

Free to be, in peace and harmony

What every nation wants, what we all can dream

Green dream for our planet, and all of us who love it

Green dream, oh green dream

Green dream for our planet, and all the children in it

Green dream, green dream

Green dream, I have a green dream

A dream about you and me, and of what can be

Green dream, for all the children

The ones who play with us, and the ones to come

Sunshine and windmills, endless green energy

And fields of plenty for all to be fed

In Mother Nature’s arms, with voices near and far

Children who have a say and light up our way

Green dream for our planet, and all of us who love I

Green dream, oh green dream

Green dream for our planet, and all the children in it

Green dream, green dream

I have a green dream

Crocodile

Crocodiles (subfamily Crocodylinae) or true crocodiles are large semiaquatic reptiles that live throughout the tropics in Africa, Asia, the Americas and Australia. Crocodylinae, all of whose members are considered true crocodiles, is classified as a biological subfamily. A broader sense of the term crocodile, Crocodylidae (which includes Tomistoma), is not used in this article. The term crocodile here applies to only the species within the subfamily of Crocodylinae. The term is sometimes used even more loosely to include all extant members of the order Crocodilia, which includes the alligators and caimans (family Alligatoridae), the gharial and false gharial (family Gavialidae), and all other living and fossil Crocodylomorpha.

Although they appear similar, crocodiles, alligators and the gharial belong to separate biological families. The gharial, with its narrow snout, is easier to distinguish, while morphological differences are more difficult to spot in crocodiles and alligators. The most obvious external differences are visible in the head, with crocodiles having narrower and longer heads, with a more V-shaped than a U-shaped snout compared to alligators and caimans. Another obvious trait is that the upper and lower jaws of the crocodiles are the same width, and the teeth in the lower jaw fall along the edge or outside the upper jaw when the mouth is closed; therefore, all teeth are visible, unlike an alligator, which possesses in the upper jaw small depressions into which the lower teeth fit. Also, when the crocodile's mouth is closed, the large fourth tooth in the lower jaw fits into a constriction in the upper jaw. For hard-to-distinguish specimens, the protruding tooth is the most reliable feature to define the species' family. Crocodiles have more webbing on the toes of the hind feet and can better tolerate saltwater due to specialized salt glands for filtering out salt, which are present, but non-functioning, in alligators. Another trait that separates crocodiles from other crocodilians is their much higher levels of aggression.

Crocodile size, morphology, behaviour and ecology differ somewhat among species. However, they have many similarities in these areas as well. All crocodiles are semiaquatic and tend to congregate in freshwater habitats such as rivers, lakes, wetlands and sometimes in brackish water and saltwater. They are carnivorous animals, feeding mostly on vertebrates such as fish, reptiles, birds and mammals, and sometimes on invertebrates such as molluscs and crustaceans, depending on species and age. All crocodiles are tropical species that, unlike alligators, are very sensitive to cold. They separated from other crocodilians during the Eocene epoch, about 55 million years ago. Many species are at the risk of extinction, some being classified as critically endangered.
Frosty the Snowman

**Frosty the Snowman** is a Christmas song on Raffi's Christmas Album.

## Lyrics

Frosty the snowman was a jolly happy soul

With a corn cob pipe and a button nose

And two eyes made out of coal

Frosty the snowman is a fairy tale they say

He was made of snow

But the children know how he came to life one day

There must have been some magic in

That ol' silk hat they found

For when they placed it on his head

He began to dance around, oh

Frosty the snowman was alive as he could be

And the children say, he could laugh and play

Just the same as you and me

[Whistling break]

Frosty the snowman knew the sun was hot that day

So he said, Let's run and we'll have some fun

Now before I melt away

Down to the village with a broom stick in his hand

Runnin' here and there all around the square

Sayin', Catch me if you can

He led them down the streets of town

Right to the traffic cop

And he only paused a moment when he heard him holler STOP!

Poor, Frosty the snowman had to hurry on his way

But he waved goodbye sayin', "Don't you cry

I'll be back again some day"

Thumpety thump thump, thumpety thump thump

Look at Frosty go

Thumpety thump thump, thumpety thump thump

Over the hills of snow

Earth Charter

The **Earth Charter** is an international declaration of fundamental values and principles considered useful by its supporters for building a just, sustainable, and peaceful global society in the 21st century. Created by a global consultation process, and endorsed by organizations representing millions of people, the Charter "seeks to inspire in all peoples a sense of global interdependence and shared responsibility for the well-being of the human family, the greater community of life, and future generations." It calls upon humanity to help create a global partnership at a critical juncture in history. The Earth Charter's ethical vision proposes that environmental protection, human rights, equitable human development, and peace are interdependent and indivisible. The Charter attempts to provide a new framework for thinking about and addressing these issues. The Earth Charter Initiative organization exists to promote the Charter.

Raffi who inspired this declaration wrote a song called Where We All Belong.
Free to Play

**Free to Play** is a Raffi song on Love Bug.

## Lyrics

Free to play, I'm happy in my world

Where I can be, what I can be

Free to play, free to sing

My dreaming song of everything

Free to dance, the day along

In my play and daydreaming song

Free to play, I dream of what can be

My finger puppet songs, sounding right along

Free to play, I'm happy in my world

Where I can be, what I can be

Dog

The **domestic dog** (*Canis familiaris* or *Canis lupus familiaris*) is a domesticated descendant of the wolf. The dog derived from an ancient, extinct wolf, and the modern grey wolfis the dog's nearest living relative. The dog was the first species to be domesticated, by hunter–gatherers over 15,000 years ago, before the development of agriculture.Their long association with humans has led dogs to be uniquely adapted to human behavior, leading to a large number of domestic individuals and the ability to thrive on a starch-rich diet that would be inadequate for other canids.

The dog has been selectively bred over millennia for various behaviors, sensory capabilities, and physical attributes. Dog breeds vary widely in shape, size, and color. They perform many roles for humans, such as hunting, herding, pulling loads, protection, assisting police and the military, companionship, therapy, and aiding disabled people. This influence on human society has given them the sobriquet of "man's best friend."
Eensy Weensy Spider

**Eensy Weensy Spider** is a song from Raffi in Concert With the Rise and Shine Band and Let's Play!.

## Lyrics

The eensy weensy spider

Went up the water spout

Down came the rain and

Washed the spider out

Out came the sun and

Dried up all the rain

And the eensy weensy spider

Went up the spout again

Then the little spider

Began to weave her thread

Of gossamer and silk

She spun herself a bed

Round and round she went

Till all her work was done

And soon a magic web lay

Gleaming in the sun

Donkey

The **donkey** or **ass** (*Equus africanus asinus*) is a domesticated member of the horse family, Equidae. The wild ancestor of the donkey is the African wild ass, *E. africanus*. The donkey has been used as a working animal for at least 5000 years. There are more than 40 million donkeys in the world, mostly in underdeveloped countries, where they are used principally as draught or pack animals. Working donkeys are often associated with those living at or below subsistence levels. Small numbers of donkeys are kept for breeding or as pets in developed countries.
Flatback Sea Turtle

**The flatback sea turtle** is named after its flat carapace, or shell, which is unlike the curved shell of other sea turtle species. The carapace is pale grayish-green in color with the outer margins distinctly upturned. An adult flatback weighs 200 pounds and is approximately 3 feet in length. They have the smallest distribution of all the species and breed and nest only in Australia.

## Distribution

The flatback has the smallest geographic range of the seven sea turtle species. Their distribution is restricted to tropical regions of the continental shelf and coastal waters of Northern Australia, the Indonesian archipelago, and the Papua New Guinea coast. They do not have an oceanic phase or undertake long, open ocean migrations like other sea turtles, and are usually found in waters less than 200 feet in depth, in soft-bottomed habitats where they prey on jellyfish, sea cucumbers and soft corals.

Breeding and nesting occur in Australia only with the largest concentration of females nesting on Crab Island in the NE Gulf of Carpentaria in Queensland. Primary nesting beaches are distributed from East to West across Queensland, the Northern Territory, and Western Australia.

## Major Threats

Threats to this species include direct harvest for meat and eggs, entanglement in fishing gear, destruction of nesting beaches from coastal development, pollution, and destruction of feeding habitat (coral reefs and shallow nearshore areas). Dingos and foxes once posed a significant threat to their nests but thanks to predator control programs, this threat has been greatly reduced. Nests and hatchlings however are preyed upon by the Sand Monitor lizard, birds-including Night Herons and Pelicans, and feral pigs. In some areas, feral pigs consume almost all of their nests.

## Habitat

Shallow, soft-bottomed tropical and subtropical waters. This turtle sticks to the continental shelf of Australia and can be found in grassy areas, bays, lagoons, estuaries, and any place with a soft-bottomed sea bed.

## Diet

The flatback sea turtle is an omnivorous species, but predominantly eats a carnivorous diet. It feeds mostly on the prey found within the shallow waters where it swims. It has been found to feed on soft corals, sea cucumbers, shrimp, jellyfish, mollusks, and other invertebrates.
Elephant

**Elephants** are the largest existing land animals. Three species are currently recognized: the African bush elephant, the African forest elephant, and the Asian elephant.

·      The largest land animal living in Asia and the babies are called calves.

·      Elephants can live up to 48-70 years old.

·      Elephants are smart animals and they show similarities in humans. They have really great memory and are always close to a source of fresh water because they need to drink at least once a day.

·      Elephants love to play, have hair on their skin and the skin changes color with age.

·      The Asian Elephant has five toes on the front and four at the back.

·      Asian Elephants are found in both dry and wet grasslands and forests.

·      Elephants eat roots, grass, fruit and tree bark. They like to sleep during the day.
Goodnight, Irene

"**Goodnight, Irene**" or "**Irene, Goodnight**," is a 20th-century American folk standard, written in 3/4 time, first recorded by American blues musician Huddie 'Lead Belly' Ledbetter in 1933.

## Lyrics

Foxes sleep in the forest

Lions sleep in their dens

Goats sleep on the mountainside

And piggies sleep in their pens

Chorus:

Irene goodnight, Irene goodnight

Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene

I'll see you in my dreams

Whales sleep in the ocean

Zebras sleep on land

Hippos sleep by the riverside

And camels sleep on sand

(Repeat Chorus)

Coyotes sleep in the canyon

A birdie sleeps in a tree

And when it's time for me to rest

My bed's just the place for me.

(Repeat Chorus 2x)

Whoa, Daniel in the lions' den

Daniel in the lions' den

He said, "Now is the needed time"

Yeah, "Now is the needed time

Now is the needed time

Well, you promised that you'd answer prayer

Oh, promised that you’d answer prayer

Promised that you'd answer prayer

Lord, won't you come by here

Oh, Lord, won't you come by here

Lord, won't you come by here"

[Harmonica solo]

And then, God, he sent an angel down

Yeah, God, he sent an angel down

God, sent an angel down, yes he did!

And the angel locked the lion's jaw

Oh, the angel locked the lion's jaw

Angel locked the lion's jaw

[Humming]

Daniel in the lions' den (Lion's den)

Can't you see it?

[Humming] (The lions' den)

Oh, Daniel in the lions' den

Daniel in the lions' den

Down By the Bay

**Down By the Bay** is a Raffi song from Singable Songs for the Very Young.

## Lyrics

Down by the bay

Where the watermelons grow

Back to my home

I dare not go

For if I do

My mother will say

"Did you ever see a goose

kissing a moose?"

Down by the bay

Down by the bay

Where the watermelons grow

Back to my home

I dare not go

For if I do

My mother will say

"Did you ever see a whale

With a polka dot tail?"

Down by the bay

Down by the bay

Where the watermelons grow

Back to my home

I dare not go

For if I do

My mother will say

"Did you ever see a fly

Wearing a tie?"

Down by the bay

Down by the bay

Where the watermelons grow

Back to my home

I dare not go

For if I do

My mother will say

"Did you ever see a bear

Combing his hair?"

Down by the bay

Down by the bay

Where the watermelons grow

Back to my home

I dare not go

For if I do

My mother will say

"Did you ever see llamas

Eating their pajamas?"

Down by the bay

Down by the bay

Where the watermelons grow

Back to my home

I dare not go

For if I do

My mother will say

"Did you ever have a time

When you couldn't make a rhyme?"

Down by the bay

Forty-Five Years

**Forty-Five Years** is a Stan Rogers song by Raffi on Adult Entertainment.

## Lyrics

Where the earth shows its bones of wind-broken stone

And the sea and the sky are one

I'm caught out of time, my blood sings with wine

And I'm running naked in the sun

There's God in the trees, I'm weak in the knees

And the sky is a painful blue

I'd like to look around, but Honey, all I see is you.

The summer city lights will soften the night

Till you'd think that the air is clear

And I'm sitting with friends, where forty-five cents

Will buy another glass of beer

He's got something to say, but I'm so far away

That I don't know who I'm talking to

Cause you just walked in the door, and Honey, all I see is you

And I just want to hold you closer than I've ever held anyone before

You say you've been twice a wife and you're through with life

Ah, but Honey, what the hell's it for?

After twenty-three years you'd think I could find

A way to let you know somehow

That I want to see your smiling face forty-five years from now.

So alone in the lights on stage every night

I've been reaching out to find a friend

Who knows all the words, sings so she's heard

And knows how all the stories end

Maybe after the show she'll ask me to go

Home with her for a drink or two

Now her smile lights her eyes, but Honey, all I see is you

(Chorus twice)

Counting On You

**Counting On You** is a Raffi song from the 2006 album: Resisto Dancing – Songs of Compassionate Revolution. It is inspired by Dr. Jane Goodall and her extraordinary work around the world.

## Lyrics

Young people search for a true way to live

From Tibet to Timbuktoo.

They look to their elders for guidance

Counting, counting on you.

The children of generations to come

Are counting on you.

Every human flower about to bloom

Is counting on you.

Every child arrives with gifts to give

Hoping, counting on you.

Alive in the power of childhood dreams

Counting, counting on you.

Asking you to live true to your heart and soul.

Asking you to come through – counting on you ... counting on you.

From this moment on to infinity

The children are counting on you.

In this fresh new trek to eternity

The children are counting on you.

Every child to sit at life’s table

Is hoping, counting on you.

To give of yourself as you’re able

The children are counting on you.

Asking you to live true to your heart and soul.

Asking you to come through – counting on you … counting on you.

Asking you to live true to your souls’ purpose.

Asking you to come through – counting on you … counting on you.

The children are counting on you.

## Trivia

* This song features a count-off, just like Workin' on the Railroad in acapella, which includes "Two, three, four!".
* Before the fourth verse, Raffi says, "Here we come!".
* The second verse mentions the titular character of the story, which is about the chicken who asks the others who will help her, but they all refuse and she gets to do it herself.
* The verse about the little red hen is not to be confused with the folk tale about the other animals who refuse.
Dylan Sings Quarantine

**Dylan Sings Quarantine** is a Raffi 2020 song about staying home in quarantine, due to COVID-19. Raffi sings it in a Bob Dylan style while Lindsay Munroe provides the backing vocals.

## Lyrics

Quarantine, Quarantine

Many of us are seldom seen

They gave our lives to Quarantine

Oh someday, we'll get them back

Quarantine, Quarantine

All that count of COVID-19

Gave our lives to Quarantine

Someday, we'll get them back

Distancing, distancing

Staying alive is quite a scene

We're social and we're distancing

Social distancing

Wash your hands, wash your hands

20 seconds, both your hands

Scrub real good, soap and rinse

Kindly wash your hands

Medicare, Medicare

Kids need go health everywhere

Not just the short, not just the tall

Oh, Medicare for all

Quarantine, Quarantine

Many of us are seldom seen

We gave our lives to Quarantine

Someday, we'll get them back.
Fly

**Flies** are insects of the order **Diptera**, the name being derived from the Greek δι- *di-* "two", and πτερόν *pteron* "wing". Insects of this order use only a single pair of wings to fly, the hindwings having evolved into advanced mechanosensory organs known as halteres, which act as high-speed sensors of rotational movement and allow dipterans to perform advanced aerobatics.
De Colores

"**De colores**" (*[Made] of Colors*) is a traditional Spanish language folk song that is well known throughout the Spanish-speaking world. It is widely used as a song in the Roman Catholic Cursillo movement and related communities such as the Great Banquet, Chrysalis Flight, Tres Dias, Walk to Emmaus, and Kairos Prison Ministry . It is also associated with the United Farm Workers union, as one of the most commonly heard songs sung during rallies.

Raffi sings this Spanish folk song on One Light One Sun.

De Colores

De Colores se visten los campos en la primavera

De Colores

De Colores son los pajaritos que vienen de afuera

De Colores

De Colores es el arco iris que vemos lucir

Y por eso los grandes amores

De muchos colores me gustan a mi

Y por eso los grandes amores

De muchos colores me gustan a mi

Canta el gallo

Canta el gallo con el quiri quiri quiri quiri quiri

La gallina

La gallina con el cara cara cara cara cara

Los polluelos

Los polluelos con el pio pio pio pio pi

Y por eso los grandes amores

De muchos colores me gustan a mi

Y por eso los grandes amores

De muchos colores me gustan a mi

Of colors

The fields are dressed in colors in the spring

Of colors

Colored are the little birds that come from outside

Of colors

De Colores is the rainbow we see shine

And so the great loves

I like many colors

And so the great loves

I like many colors

Crow the rooster

The rooster crows with the quiri quiri quiri quiri quiri

The hen

The hen with the face face face face face

The chicks

The chicks with the pio pio pio pio pi

And so the great loves

I like many colors

And so the great loves

I like many colors

Frog

A **frog** is any member of a diverse and largely carnivorous group of short-bodied, tailless amphibians composing the order **Anura** (literally *without tail* in Ancient Greek). The oldest fossil "proto-frog" appeared in the early Triassic of Madagascar, but molecular clock dating suggests their origins may extend further back to the Permian, 265 million years ago. Frogs are widely distributed, ranging from the tropics to subarctic regions, but the greatest concentration of species diversity is in tropical rainforest. There are about 7,300 recorded species, which account for around 88% of extant amphibian species. They are also one of the five most diverse vertebrate orders. Warty frog species tend to be called toads, but the distinction between frogs and toads is informal, not from taxonomy or evolutionary history.
