== taxoboxColour ==
Given a taxon name, this function returns the correct colour of an automated taxobox for that taxon. It does so by searching up the taxonomic hierarchy for a 'real' taxon (i.e. not ''incertae sedis'') that sets the taxobox colour, and then returning that colour. If no 'real' taxon is found, then if an ''incertae sedis'' taxon was found, the ''incertae sedis'' colour is returned, otherwise "transparent" is returned. (If the taxonomic hierarchy is too deep to process, the error colour is returned.)

Usage:

:<code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>#invoke:Autotaxobox|taxoboxColour|''taxon_name''}}</code>

Parameters:

:The unnamed parameter should be the name of a taxon for which "Template:Taxonomy/''taxon_name''" exists.

Examples:

:<nowiki>{{#invoke:Autotaxobox|taxoboxColour|Felis}}</nowiki> → {{#invoke:Autotaxobox|taxoboxColour|Felis}}
:<nowiki>{{#invoke:Autotaxobox|taxoboxColour|Acacia}}</nowiki> → {{#invoke:Autotaxobox|taxoboxColour|Acacia}}
