The taxa in order from largest to smallest are domain, kingdom,phylum,class, order, family, genus, and species. Taxonomy is the hierarchical system of classification from the most inclusive taxon to the most exclusive taxon. It was developed by Charles Linnaeus.

In taxonomy, arthropods would not be an order but a much larger grouping called a phylum (phylum Arthropoda). Taxa are hierarchical, with the smaller divisions below phyla being subphyla, and within them, the classes/subclasses, then below that, the Orders. You might say that phylum Arthropoda has a lot of orders "inside it."

Domain
A taxonomic category is simply called a Taxon (Plural = Taxa). these are arranged in order of largeness as follows: Domain-Kingdom-Phylum-Class-Order-Family-Genus-Species-Subspecies. There may be some intermediate taxa like Subphylum, Superclass, Subclass, Superorder, Suborder, Subfamily, Subgenus etc.
