Living things on earth are very diverse and important for human life, thus it needs to be preserved and studied by classification. Classification is a group of living things based on characteristics equations. The diversity of animal and plant makes classification less practical and effective if only learned from books. The Taxonomy Application was created to address the issue by applying the Forest Tree Structure into the Android platform. The Forest Tree structure is used to create taxon model in stages from the highest (Kingdom) to lowest (Species) level. This application contains a search feature and display information such as description, characteristics, images, references, and the taxonomic levels of the taxon. The test results showed that 61% of users strongly agree that the application can perform well, 60% agree with the user interface aspects, 70% agree that the application are providing education, 54% agree it should be published and can be used as media to learn about classification
