[edit] Things to note:

• Usually the taxobox heading is the common name of the family in bold type. When the common name is used, it should be pluralized. The article title, however, should always be in the singular.
• If there is no suitable common name, use the scientific name instead.
• Notice that the last entry in the list of genera (in this example it's Propithecus) does not include the new line code <br>. All the other ones do.
• In general, link the genera. One can not tell when an article will become relevant.
• Watch out for taxonomic issues. It's a minefield out there!
