Quote (didymos @ Oct. 13 2009,18:52) | Quote (Henry J @ Oct. 13 2009,15:57) | 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.
