SUbkingdom (sub'king'dum), n. 1. A prime 
subdivision of the animal kingdom ; a superclass 
corresponding to the "branches" or "em- 
branchements" of French zoologists, as Cuvier, 
who recognized the four subkingdoms of the 
vertebrates, mollusks, articulates, and radiates. 
Such main groups are now more commonly called phyla. 
Eight such groups now very generally recognized, in fact 
if not in name, are Protozoa, Ccelentera, Echinndermata, 
Venues, Arthropoda, MMwcoidea, ilollusca, and Vertebra- 
ta. Sonie authors degrade Vermes from this rank, or other- 
wise dispose of it as a subkingdom; some elevate the Tu- 
nicata to this rank ; and the Molluscoidea are not recog- 
nized by all as a subkingdom. 
The prolific animals of the fifth day's creation belonged 
to the three Cuvierian subkingdoms of the Radiata, Artie- 
ulata, and Mollusca, and to the classes of Fish and Rep- 
tiles among the Vertebrata.
