A news item on BBC radio this morning reports of a proposal - backed by
the UK government - to UN Convention of biodiversity to declare fungi as
a separate species ('kingdom') to flora and fauna. The aim for this is
to protect fungi "...which are neither plants nor animals".

Terrestrial biology aside, my question pertains to the Bible. According
to the bible, plants were created on the 3d day, sky animals (a.k.a.
birds) on the 5th and land animals on the 6th.

Whoops! Omission by the authors of the Bible (or God)?

The person I heard speaking of fungi said "fungi...is..." which tells us
more about the direction of English. Where media goes, fungi follows.

Perhaps the Hebrew word for plants included fungi (in Hebrew usage). And
don't forget that the bible had a long history before the final draft
was agreed by the Committee.

Didn't Linnaeus also include fungi in "Plantae"?

That is the problem with the bible, in my opinion. "Many authors"
diminishes its authority (cf. the Quran -- one seer + one scribe).

As in scientific papers with many authors?

<URL:https://arxiv.org/pdf/2405.00232>
only lists 9 authors, but used crowd-sourced observations (via Galaxy
Zoo).

A kingdom is not a species.

Your "separate... to" reminds me of the British "different to".

And it's about time the UN Convention on Biological

I got a suspicion reading that word, and Dictionar.com confirms it:

"Barm" is related to Danish "bærme" which I only have heard used about
the precipitate (? residue at the bottom) in wine bottles.

Of course. She knew they would disappear.
Like unicorns, they are extinct because Noah couldn't fit them on the ark.
Maybe the unicorns and the dinosaurs had to wait for the B Ark.
Come on, everybody! Every life-form is temporary, and serves its purpose.
Don't over-think it.
Not if it is Created once and forever.

Hey, if you're making stuff up, it's easy to forget some things.
And if their god was passing stuff down, he sure forgot about things
like dinosaurs.
Of course. She knew they would disappear.
Like unicorns, they are extinct because Noah couldn't fit them on
the ark.
Maybe the unicorns and the dinosaurs had to wait for the B Ark.
Come on, everybody! Every life-form is temporary, and serves its
purpose. Don't over-think it.

Reminds me of that great philosopher Tom Lehrer:
"There may be many others, but they haven't been discarvard."
