=== Classification for animals === [[File:Linnaeus - Regnum Animale (1735).png|thumb|400px|The 1735 classification of animals]] Only in the Animal Kingdom is the higher taxonomy of Linnaeus still more or less recognizable and some of these names are still in use, but usually not quite for the same groups. He divided the Animal Kingdom into six classes. In the tenth edition, of 1758, these were: * Classis 1. [[Mammalia in the 10th edition of Systema Naturae|Mammalia]] (mammals) * Classis 2. [[Aves in the 10th edition of Systema Naturae|Aves]] (birds) * Classis 3. [[Amphibia in the 10th edition of Systema Naturae|Amphibia]] (amphibians) * Classis 4. [[Pisces in the 10th edition of Systema Naturae|Pisces]] (fishes) * Classis 5. [[Insecta in the 10th edition of Systema Naturae|Insecta]] (arthropods) * Classis 6. [[Vermes in the 10th edition of Systema Naturae|Vermes]] (worms)
