[Taxonomy of sheep (genus Ovis, Linnaeus, 1758)].
Until recently, mainly comparative morphology was used to classify animals into species, but this method has not led to consensus about the genus sheep (Ovis). However, advanced research techniques, such as cytodiagnosis, provide greater certainty and it is anticipated that these techniques will enable agreement to be reached about the taxonomy of the sheep.
