Monera is the first Kingdom according to R.H. Whittaker's five-kingdom classification.

It comprises all prokaryotic (Without a well developed nucleus or nuclear membrane bound organelles) organisms and has NO eukaryotic( With a prominent nucleus and nuclear membrane bound organelles) organisms in it.

The sole members of this kingdom are bacteria. Blue- green algae also known as cyanobacteria come under this kingdom.

They are all unicellular. No organism is multicellular.

They reproduce by asexual means or vegetative means.

Some bacteria adopt a VERY primitive mode of sexual reproduction.

It has 3 main domains: Eubacteria, Cyanobacteria, Archaebacteria.
