Solution

The correct option is C Systema Naturae
Linnaeus is described as the father of taxonomy due to his immense contribution in the field of nomenclature and taxonomy. He identified and classified 24 classes of flowering plants based on the number of stamens. He divided these classes into orders on the basis of carpel characteristics. This sexual, as well as artificial classification system, was first described in his book called as Systema Naturae.
Thus, the correct answer is option C.
