This is easily accomplished by using the organism filter box located in the middle of the Advanced BLAST page. Typing mammalia into this box will limit your BLAST search to the taxon Mammalia. To browse the NCBI taxonomic tree in order to determine which taxon to use, follow the link below the organism filter box entitled Explore the taxonomy database at NCBI.
