After kingdoms the Phylum category comes, following Phylum is Class, various classes that are related will form a Phylum. The next category is Order, order is divided into Family, families are broken into Genus, where species are closely related between each other and finally the last category is Especies identifier, in this group there are unique characteristics that will identify a specie.
