The author proves existence of classical solutions to nonlinear parabolic systems in divergence form \[ \frac{\partial u_i}{\partial t}= \sum_{l=1}^n \left( \sum_{j=1}^N \sum_{|\alpha|\leq 2p-1} A^{ij}_{\alpha,l}(u,x,t) D^\alpha u_j\right)_{x_l},\quad x\in \mathbb{R}^n,\;u\in \mathbb{R}^N, \] with a positive integer \(p,\) under mild regularity assumptions on coefficients in the problem, and under the assumption of Hölder continuous initial data. The analysis is motivated by the study of stability for stationary and traveling wave solutions arising in such systems. In this setting, large time bounds obtained by pointwise semigroup techniques are often coupled with appropriate short time bounds in order to close an iteration based on Duhamel-type integral equations, and the analysis gives precisely the required short time bounds. This development both clarifies previous applications of this idea (by \textit{K. Zumbrun} and \textit{P. Howard} [Indiana Univ. Math. J. 47, No. 3, 741--871 (1998; Zbl 0928.35018)]) and establishes a general result that covers many additional cases.
