Linnaean classification
A hierarchical method of naming classificatory groups, invented by the 18th-century Swedish naturalist Carl von Linn? or Linnaeus. Each individual is assigned to a species, genus, family, order, class, phylum, and kingdom, and some intermediate classificatory levels. Species are referred to by a Linnaean binomial of its genus and species, such as Magnolia grandiflora.
