In biology, a phylum ( plural: phyla) is a taxonomic rank below kingdom and above class. "Phylum" is equivalent to the botanical term division. The kingdom Animalia contains approximately 35 phyla; the kingdom Plantae contains 12 divisions.
It's the plural form of "phylum." It's the second highest ranking in the modern taxonomic classification system: (in order from highest to lowest) Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Genus Species Kingdom has the most diverse range of organisms that may not be obviously similar. Phylum is next in line, but there are more similarities of organisms taken into account. Species is the most distinct, i.e. all similarities of organisms classified into a species must be taken into account. In a scientific name, the first name is the genus name, and the second name is the species name. As in: Streptococcus aureus This is a bacterium of the aureus species belonging to the Streptococcus genus.
