Monera
3 types of Monera
Eubacteria
These are prokaryotic organisms, as characterized by the lack of a membrane-enclosed nucleus, predominantly unicellular, with DNA in a single circular chromosome, and have peptidoglycan on cell wall when present.

Eubacteria, or “true” bacteria, are single-celled prokaryotic microorganisms that have a range of characteristics and are found in various conditions throughout all parts of the
Archaebacteria
A group of microorganisms considered to be an ancient form of life that evolved separately from the bacteria and blue-green algae.
However, genetic and biochemical studies of bacteria soon showed that one class of prokaryotes was very different from “modern” bacteria, and indeed from all other modern life forms.
Eventually named “archaebacteria” from “archae” for “ancient,” these unique cells are thought to be modern descendants of a very ancient lineage of bacteria that evolved around sulfur-rich deep sea vents
Cyanobacteria
Also known as Cyanophyta, are a phylum of prokaryotes consisting of the red and green algae and land plants.
Aquatic and photosynthetic, because they are bacteria, they are quite small and unicellular, though they often grow in colonies large enough to see.
They have the distinction of being the oldest known fossils, more than 3.5 billion years old, in fact! It may surprise you then to know that the cyanobacteria are still around; they are one of the largest and most important groups of bacteria on earth.
A kingdom that contains unicellular organisms with a prokaryotic cell organization (having no nuclear membrane), such as bacteria.
Monera belongs to the prokaryote family. The organisms belonging to this kingdom do not contain a true nucleus. Their DNA is not enclosed within the nucleus (prokaryotic organisms).
