That is the scientific Kingdom name. There are four Phyla; two are the Crenarchaeota and the Euryarchaeota. Three divisions of archaebacteria are Methanogens: methane producing organisms; Thermophiles: These can live in extremely hot, acidic environments like sulfur springs; Halophiles: Can only live in bodies of concentrated salt water, like the Dead Sea.
