1. Taxon: Phylum Class Order Family Genus G. species Time: 555 mya
Your Assignment:
Create an “Animal Card” for any animal or group of animals:
Must be within Animalia
Must include a photo/drawing that occupies half the space
Must include at least one taxon (start with Phylum)
Must include the approximate earliest age for each taxon (i.e., the first time that a member of that taxon appeared)
Must be exactly the size of an index card (3”x5”)

2. “Long-horned Beetles”
Two Perfect Examples
Specific Animal:
“Jaguar”
Animal Group:
“Long-horned Beetles”
Notice:
Clear photo/photos.
No common names anywhere on the card.
Exactly 3”x5” (you could even use these as your template!).
The words “Phylum,” “Class,” etc. do not appear—rather, the name of the Phylum, Class, etc. are shown.
(Not visible) Name of the person who created the card written on back.
