They are: Animalia (animals) Plantae (plants) Monera (prokaryotes like bacteria) Fungi (yeasts and fungus) Protoctista (an other category for eukaryotes) see http://scienceaid.co.uk/biology/ecolgy2/classification.html

The 5 kingdoms have already been listed by answerers above, but I wanted to mention that many biologists don't even use the term "kingdom" anymore. It really is completely obsolete now - people who study evolutionary biology are now trying to focus more on "clades" or "lineages" of organisms and get away from the Linnnaean hierarchy, at least above the level of "order." I refer to the groups as animals, green plants, fungi, etc. or as clades or lineages. Does this make sense?

In biological taxonomy, a kingdom or regnum is a taxonomic rank in either (historically) the highest rank, or (in the new three-domain system) the rank below domain. Each kingdom is divided into smaller groups called phyla (or in some contexts these are called "divisions"). Currently, textbooks from the United States use a system of six kingdoms (Animalia, Plantae, Fungi, Protoctista, Archaea, and Monera), while British and Australian textbooks describe five kingdoms (Animalia, Plantae, Fungi, Protista, and Prokaryota or Monera).
