Archaeal Classes

Archaeal classes are the divisions of each archaeal phylum. In the phylum Methanobacteriota, which sits in the kingdom Methanobacteriati of the domain Archaea and was validly published in 2023, the named classes include Archaeoglobi, Halobacteria, Methanobacteria, Methanococci, Methanopyri, Thermococci and Thermoplasmata, alongside provisional Candidatus classes. The phylum name was published by Garrity and Holt in 2023 and ends in ota, the ending that denotes a phylum, with Methanobacterium as the type genus.
