The various database management system has been developed for storing, processing, and retrieving taxonomic data. In this paper, we present an order-family code, which is decimals, an 11-digit number. The order-family code contains phylogenetic relationships between each order and family and to help their database establishing effectively. To present the family name with code, we can intuitively know the systematic relationship and relative distance of a particular group. Moreover, this code could be applied in various ways for databases such as add a family code field, visualization of cladograms, etc. Thus, this suggested code presents new perspectives for future work on the effective establishing and managing of the biological database.
