The true statement regarding the taxonomic system is:

The current taxonomic system is based on the Linnaean classification system.

The Linnaean system, developed by Carl Linnaeus, is foundational in the classification of organisms, although modern taxonomy has evolved to incorporate additional methods such as evolutionary relationships. The other statements are incorrect: not all extinct species have been cataloged, not all living species have been cataloged, and Charles Darwin did not create the taxonomic system; he contributed to the understanding of evolution, which has influenced taxonomy.
