Alnus cordata: The Complete Guide

By Mohamad Adli Adli Kusuma

Kingdom: This is the broadest category, grouping organisms based on very fundamental characteristics. Think of it as the biggest box. Examples include Animalia (animals), Plantae (plants), Fungi, Protista, and Monera (though Monera is often split into Archaea and Bacteria now). Phylum: Within each kingdom are several phyla (the plural of phylum). These groups share a more specific set of characteristics than just being in the same kingdom. For example, within the Animal Kingdom, you have Chordata (animals with a backbone), Arthropoda (insects, spiders, crustaceans), and Mollusca (snails, clams, squid). Class: Moving further down, each phylum is divided into classes. These organisms share even more similarities. Within the Chordata phylum, you find classes like Mammalia (mammals), Aves (birds), Reptilia (reptiles), Amphibia (amphibians), and Pisces (fish). Order: Classes are then broken down into orders. Organisms within an order have even more in common. For instance, within the Mammalia class, you have orders like Primates (monkeys, apes, humans), Carnivora (cats, dogs, bears), and Rodentia (mice, rats, squirrels). Family: Orders are divided into families, which consist of closely related genera. Within the Carnivora order, you find families like Felidae (cats), Canidae (dogs), and Ursidae (bears). Genus: A genus (plural genera) is a group of very closely related species. The genus name is always capitalized and italicized (or underlined if italics aren't available). For example, Pan is the genus that includes chimpanzees and bonobos.
