The phylum for Chionoecetes is Arthropoda to be placed in this phylum these five characteristics must be present: exoskeleton, segmented bodies, jointed appendages, bilateral symmetry, and an open circulatory system. Chionoecetes are further categorized in the subphylum crustacea. Chionoecetes are further divided into this subphylum due to biramous limbs and their larval forms. Chionoecetes are classified into the Maxillopoda class being distinguished by a five-six-four body plan ending with a telson[1]. The Order Chionoecetes fall into is Decapoda meaning that they have eight pairs of thoracic appendages five of these paired legs are the ten legs which is the definition of being a decapod[2]. The Chionoecetes Family is Oregoniidae this order uses a drag power for their locomotion[3]. Finally, we have arrived at the genus which is known as Chionoecetes this family currently contains seven distinct species that have been categorized under this family.[4]
