Six kingdoms? I've heard of plants, animals, and fungi being referred to as kingdoms. What other three taxa are called kingdoms? (In what I've read, Prokaryotes, Eukaryotes, and Archaea are sometimes called domains.)

Well, depends on the source, but for those that do go for the six kingdom thing, they are:

I. Plants
II. Animals
III. Fungi
IV. Protists
V. Bacteria
VI. Archaea

with the first four corresponding to Woese's Eukarya domain.

(edited for obsolete terminology)

V. should be Eubacteria... but I digress

Ignored by those who can't provide evidence for their claims.
