{{Automatic_taxobox/doc/nav/boxed}}
This template is used to display a taxobox for a hybrid of two animal species within a single genus whose taxonomy is stored in the taxonomy templates of the [[Template:Automatic taxobox/doc/intro|automated taxobox system]], ''provided'' that no ranks between species and genus are to be displayed (since it works by looking for the parent taxon of the genus).

For plants with nothospecies names (e.g. [[Chrysanthemum × morifolium|''Chrysanthemum'' × ''morifolium'']]) use {{tl|Speciesbox}}. This template is used for animals such as the [[liger]],  ''Panthera leo'' × ''P. tigris''.

== Usage ==
Usage is similar to [[Template:Speciesbox]] (with one slight variation noted below).
=== Cases in which the sex of each species parent is irrelevant ===
{{Hybridbox
 | name     = Dzo
 | genus    = Bos
 | species1 = grunniens
 | link1    = Yak
 | species2 = primigenius
 | link2    = Aurochs
}}
In this case, use the <code>genus</code>, <code>species1</code> and <code>species2</code>; if the article on either species is not at the scientific name, use <code>link1</code> and/or <code>link2</code>. For example, the taxobox to the right was formed by the following code:
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">
{{Hybridbox
 | name     = Dzo
 | genus    = Bos
 | species1 = grunniens
 | link1    = Yak
 | species2 = primigenius
 | link2    = Aurochs
}}
</syntaxhighlight>
{{clear}}

=== Cases in which the sex of each species parent is relevant ===

{{Hybridbox
 | name        = Liger
 | genus       = Panthera
 | father      = leo
 | father_link = Lion
 | mother      = tigris
 | mother_link = Tiger
}}
For some hybrids, which species is male and which is female ''is'' a part of the definition of the hybrid. For example, an animal whose father is a lion and mother is a tiger would be called a [[liger]], while if the father is a tiger and the mother is a lioness the animal would be called a [[tigon]]. In this case, the species names should use <code>father</code> and <code>mother</code>, and the links would be <code>father_link</code> and <code>mother_link</code>. For example, the taxobox to the right was formed by the following code:
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">
{{Hybridbox
 | name        = Liger
 | genus       = Panthera
 | father      = leo
 | father_link = Lion
 | mother      = tigris
 | mother_link = Tiger
}}
</syntaxhighlight>
{{clear}}

== Requirement for correct display ==
The template will generate a taxobox which will display correctly only if the taxonomy for the genus has already been created (i.e. Template:Taxonomy/''genusname'' already exists). If it does not, you will be asked to create it. One way is to look for the "fix" link and open it.
