| subclass of | (noun) (biology) the major taxonomic group of animals and plants; contains classes
phylum |
| has subclass | (noun) used only in former classifications: comprising what is now considered a heterogeneous assemblage of flowerless and seedless organisms: algae; bacteria; fungi; lichens
Thallophyta |
| has subclass | (noun) in former classifications: comprising plants with a vascular system including ferns and fern allies as well as seed plants
division Tracheophyta, Tracheophyta |
| has subclass | (noun) a division of nonflowering plants characterized by rhizoids rather than true roots and having little or no organized vascular tissue and showing alternation of generations between gamete-bearing forms and spore-bearing forms; comprises true mosses (Bryopsida) and liverworts (Hepaticopsida) and hornworts (Anthoceropsida)

division Pteridophyta, Pteridophyta |
| has subclass | (noun) seed plants; comprises the Angiospermae (or Magnoliophyta) and Gymnospermae (or Gymnospermophyta); in some classification systems Spermatophyta is coordinate with Pteridophyta (spore producing plants having vascular tissue and roots) and Bryophyta (spore producing plants lacking vascular tissue and roots)
division Spermatophyta, Spermatophyta |
| has subclass | (noun) in former classification systems: one of two major plant divisions, including all seed-bearing plants; superseded by the division Spermatophyta
Phanerogamae |
| has subclass | (noun) in former classification systems: one of two major plant divisions, including all plants that do not bear seeds: ferns, mosses, algae, fungi
Cryptogamia |
| has subclass | (noun) used in former classifications to include all ferns and flowering plants and divided into the three classes Filicinae and Gymnospermae and Angiospermae
subdivision Pteropsida, Pteropsida |
| has subclass | (noun) division of fungi having sexually produced zygospores
Zygomycota, subdivision Zygomycota, subdivision Zygomycotina, Zygomycotina |
| has subclass | (noun) slime molds; organisms having a noncellular and multinucleate creeping vegetative phase and a propagative spore-producing stage: comprises Myxomycetes and Acrasiomycetes; in some classifications placed in the kingdom Protoctista
division Gymnomycota, Gymnomycota, division Myxomycota, Myxomycota |

Mastigomycotina, subdivision Mastigomycota, Mastigomycota, subdivision Mastigomycotina |
| has subclass | (noun) comprising the lichens which grow symbiotically with algae; sometimes treated as an independent group more or less coordinate with algae and fungi
Lichenes, division Lichenes |
| has subclass | (noun) true fungi; eukaryotic heterotrophic walled organisms; distinguished from Myxomycota (funguslike slime molds): comprises subdivisions Mastigomycotina; Zygomycotina; Ascomycotina; Basidiomycotina; Deuteromycotina (imperfect fungi)

Lycophyta |
| has subclass | (noun) eukaryotic one-celled living organisms distinct from multicellular plants and animals: protozoa, slime molds, and eukaryotic algae
