Kingdom: Animalia (also called metazoa)
Phylum: Arthropoda (characterised with segmented body and joints)
Subphylum: Crustacea (animals with tough exoskeletons)
Class: Malacostraca (with soft shells, for some Malacostraca is a class for others this is a subclass)
Order: Decapoda (with 10 legs)
Suborder: Pleocyemata ( for this order the fertilised eggs are incubated by the female, and remain stuck to the legs until the eggs are ready to hatch)
Infraorder: Astacidea (group of decapod crustaceans, comprises of 4 super families)
Family: Nephropidae
Its amazing and I had no idea that the term lobsters is associated with "Clawed lobsters" and that the "clawed lobsters" have no close relation to the "unclawed lobsters". This is a fun page to read for all the lobsters lovers out there.
