One purpose of this paper is to briefly discuss the various stages in the development of mi‐ crobial taxonomy to illustrate how new technological developments have influenced our un‐ derstanding of prokaryotic species. This will be followed by a discussion of why a universal species concept for all organisms is a critical need for biology as a scientific discipline. In particular, arguments will be made for the adoption of the phylogenomic species concept as a Universal Species Concept (USC). The final section will provide an outline of how biolo‐ gists might implement a USC.
