Taxonomic remark On its discovery, this group was initially treated as a sub-group of Bacteria and named Archaebacteria; as subcellular differences were quantified it was renamed Archaea and given its own "domain" by Woese et al., 1990; subsequently formally named under the ICNP in Göker & Oren, 2024. Fossil occurrence is inferred as this is believed to be an ancient group although cannot be distinguished in the fossil record on purely morphological evidence. Treated as a kingdom following Ruggiero et al., 2015 although LPSN treats as a domain, with multiple included kingdoms (not yet implemented in IRMNG). [details]
