There are 36 recognized animal phyla, of which but nine (Mollusca, Porifera, Cnidaria, Platyhelminthes, Nematoda, Annelida, Arthropoda, Echinodermata, and Chordata) contain the vast majority of described, extant species.

FURTHER INFO:

               Debate continues regarding whether the different phyla appeared on earth prior to the Cambrian Explosion some 544 million years ago that roughly speaking marks the time when life forms had become large enough and many had acquired hardened body parts, so that a findable fossil record could begin to accumulate

Classes comprising animals like fishes, amphibians, reptiles, birds

along with mammals constitute the next higher category called

Phylum. All these, based on the common features like presence

of notochord and dorsal hollow neural system, are included in

phylum Chordata. In case of plants, classes with a few similar

characters are assigned to a higher category called Division.
