Many genera constitute a family, families constitute the orders then class, division or phylum (pl-phyla) and ultimately kingdom is constituted. \[\text{Species}\to \text{Genus}\to \text{Family}\to \text{Order}\]\[\to \left( \text{lowestrank} \right)\text{ Class}\to \] \[\text{Phylum or Divisiona}\to \text{Kingdom}.\left( \text{highest rank} \right)\] Hierarchy of taxonomic categoriesYou need to login to perform this action.
