Bergey's Manual organizes prokaryotes into two domains (Archaea and Bacteria), each of which is further divided into 23 phyla and numerous classes, orders, families, and genera. The outline below lists representative genera from all currently accepted families. On this page, genera are grouped by Phylum (named), Class (named), Order and Family. Arabic numerals indicate genera belonging to different orders (numeral before the period) and families (numeral after the period). Letters a, b, c...are used when more than one genus is listed to represent its family. Parenthesis: number of genera in this family, including the genus listed. An Alphabetical Index of genera is also provided.
