Scientific classification or biological classification is how biologists group and categorize extinct and living species of organisms. Scientific classification can also be called scientific taxonomy, but should be distinguished from folk taxonomy, which lacks any proper scientific basis. Modern classification has its root in the work of Carolus Linnaeus, who grouped species according to shared physical characteristics. These groupings have been revised since Linnaeus to improve consistency with the Darwinian principle of common descent. Molecular systematics, which uses DNA sequences as data, has driven many recent revisions and is likely to continue to do so. Scientific classification belongs to the science of taxonomy or biological systematics.

Remembering the order


Numerous mnemonic devices for the classification hierarchy from most to least general, e.g.
Kings Play Chess On Fine Glass Stools (and numerous variants thereof)

= Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species.
