It is also called Linnaean hierarchy or taxononmic hierarchy or Taxonomic classification. It was first proposed by Linaeus. Hierarchy of categories is the classification of organism in a definite sequence of categories (taxonomic categories) in a descending order starting from kingdom. The number of similar characters of categories decreases from lowest rank to highest rank. The hierarchy includes seven obligate categories – kingdom, division or phylum, class, order, family, genus and species. The categories are arranged in descending sequence keeping the kingdom at the top. In order to make taxonomic position of species more precise, certain categories have been added to this list. They are called intermediate categories.
