Squidward would belong to the phylum Mollusca, along with other animals like squids and octopuses. This phylum includes soft-bodied animals with a muscular foot and a mantle that may secrete a shell.
Fish have backbones and like all animals with backbones the phylum is chordata. There are further subclassifications in chordata; those with complete skulls are in the craniata subgroup.
The opposite of arthropods would be non-arthropods or invertebrates that do not belong to the phylum Arthropoda.
Actually, the classification of animals goes from broad to specific, starting with kingdom and descending down to species. The hierarchy is: kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species. So, animals with a spine would be classified in the kingdom Animalia, phylum Chordata, class Mammalia (for mammals), and so on, down to the specific species.
Classifying all animals that swim in the same phylum is overly broad as swimming is a behavior rather than a specific shared evolutionary trait. Animals that swim can belong to different phyla based on their anatomical and genetic characteristics. Grouping them solely based on swimming behavior would lead to an inaccurate and misleading classification system.
Members of the same species would show the greatest similarity in terms of kingdom, phylum, genus, and species because they belong to the same biological classification group at all these levels.
A beaver would belong to the chordata phylum, same as you and me.
phylum chordata... :)

Butterflies belong in the Phylum Arthropoda, Class Insecta, etc., whereas polar bears belong in Phylum Chordata, Class Mammalia. This means that butterflies, though animals, are not vertebrates nor are they mammals: they are invertebrates and thus insects.
Phylum Athropoda, ( The Arthropods) as they contain the insects of which there are 800 000 species and the insects are the most abundant animals on earth.
Vertebrates and Invertebrates. Vertebrates are animals with backbone which includes mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians and fish. While invertebrates are animals without backbone. It includes an immense variety of animals from sponges, worms and jellyfish to mollusk and insects. another way is: carnivore and omnivore.
Butterflies belong to the Animalia kingdom. They also belong to the phylum arthropoda and also belong to the suborder rhopalocera.
Most people would consider fish in the Animalia kingdom ( animal kingdom ), Fish, mammals, insects, animals of course would all belong to the Animalia kingdom. Unlike us we belong to god. But if you are Muslim or Islam or even Jewish and Sikh you would know what kingdom you belong to. -Top Contributor Hillary
There is no longer any difference in the classification system of plants and animals. Before, it was that you would use the term division for classifying plants instead of phylum,used to classify animals. Now, phylum can be used to classify plants and animals.

Yes, whale lice belong to phylum Arthropoda - the arthropods. They are crustaceans, more like a kind of shrimp than the insect class to which most familiar lice would belong.
Would you believe this... a bloat of hippos, I believe is the collective noun!
