List of animal classes
The following is a list of the classes in each phylum of the kingdom Animalia. There are 107 classes of animals in 33 phyla in this list. However, different sources give different numbers of classes and phyla. For example, Protura, Diplura, and Collembola are often considered to be the three orders in the class Entognatha. This list should by no means be considered complete and authoritative and should be used carefully.

gollark: GTech™ calls them "palaiologistic neural networks" but it's a bit long.
gollark: Really? Fascinating. I might have to edit the policy and harvest this.
