Suborder Corynebacterineae

Classification of domains and phyla - Hierarchical classification of prokaryotes (bacteria)

See also the file Classification of prokaryotes (bacteria): Introduction

Introduction

The two prokaryotic domains (or empires), "Bacteria" (or "Eubacteria") and "Archaea" (or "Archaeobacteria"), are subdivided into 29 phyla (or divisions): 27 phyla in the domain "Bacteria", and 2 phyla in the domain "Archaea".
The class Ktedonobacteria is currently not classified in a phylum (see Unclassified "Bacteria")
This file provides, alphabetically, the list of phyla included in the domains "Bacteria" and "Archaea". The classes, subclasses, orders, suborders, families and genera included in the phyla are also cited.
Taxa above the rank of class are not covered by the Rules of the Bacteriological Code (1990 Revision). Such names cannot be validly published and they are cited below in quotes.
