Class is one of the levels of scientific classification of organisms. The standard groupings of taxonomy from most general to most specific are:

Domain
Kingdom
Phylum (animals); Division (plants)
- Subphylum; Subdivision
- Superclass
Class
Order
- Suborder
- Superfamily
Family
- Subfamily
Genus
- Subgenus
- SectionSection can be: A cross section (in the common sense or the physics sense) In mathematics: A conic section A section of a fiber bundle or sheaf A Caesarean section In UK law, Section 28 In the fictional Star Trek universe, Section 31 A military unit A sec

SpeciesThis article discusses biological species. Also see combinatorial species for the mathematical meaning of the term. Species is also a movie by Roger Donaldson. In English "species" is both singular and plural. The word " specie" is unrelated and is used t
- SubspeciesIn taxonomy, a subspecies is the taxon immediately subordinate to a species. Members of one subspecies differ morphologically but sometimes only genetically from members of other subspecies of the species. Conventions Conventions regarding infra-specific
- VarietyA variety is a recognised division of a species in botany, next below the rank of subspecies; in zoology, species are only ever divided into subspecies and not into varieties. The pincushion cactus, Escobaria vivipara (Nutt. is a wide-ranging variable spe (plants only)

An acronym mnemonicA mnemonic ( SAMPA /n@'mAnIk/ in US or /n@'mQnIk/ in UK) is a memory aid. Mnemonics are often verbal, are sometimes in verse form, and are often used to remember lists. Mnemonics rely not only on repetition to remember facts, but also on creating associat for remembering this is: King Phillip called out for good soup.

See also: Binomial nomenclatureIn biology, binomial nomenclature is a standard convention used for naming species. As the word 'binomial' suggests, the scientific name of a species is formed by the combination of two terms: the genus name and the species epithet or descriptor.
